@ScoutingDad posted:Something amiss here? A Boeing 737 is 12 feet 1inch in diameter. In scale there would be quite an overhang on each side of O gauge track. Perhaps the model is semi-scale or Lionel's Traditional Scale?
Nice photo though...
Jeff there is a little overhang, but nothing to worry about. I have seen them come threw town alot growing up just outside of Renton wa. Also if you goto BNSF website the photos show they are no wider then the top of the engines pulling g them.

In keeping with the airplane theme, here is Lionel Air Force One engine & caboose.
@Don McErlean posted:@carpetrainman - Paul I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your two pictures with the train aligned down the platform with the platform lights in a row. I especially liked the "Greenbriar" steam picture although the Santa Fe war bonnet was a close second. Great photo's both.
Best Regards Don
Don, i appreciate the comment...glad you enjoyed!
The Santa Fe PA heads staight in to the flurry...

This is an excellent picture. After looking at it for a while, I’m trying to define the variation of model and background or is it a real picture?

The scenery on this module is terrific. Your modeling skills and photographic skills combine perfectly in this scene. What type of warehouse is that? Is it part of the photographic backdrop or a scratch build? Is this the second or third module you've assembled?
Your Christmas card to the Forum is wonderful.
Have a Merry Christmas my friend.

Joe,
Thank you. This is the third module I have built. The prototype of the building can be found in Canada and I have thought that it will store potatoes, for example. The building is part of the wallpaper. Have a peaceful Christmas my friend. 🤝

You make phenomenal backdrops out of your photos. Did you get to Canada when you visited New England last year?

Joe,
We only went to the border because our rental car was not allowed to cross the border. However, we shot in Frenchville across the river to the Canadian side. There seemed to be plenty of Canadian National freight trains running on the railway.

Merry Christmas!

Christmas time on my layout. Put a small scene together for my granddaughters. Actually put together a little Christmas train for the first time on the layout . Trains are so much fun when others enjoy them also.
