Makes me think of the Shady Rest. Just waiting for Billie Jo, Bobbie Jo and Bettie Jo to come out on the balcony.

Johan, is your tunnel brick lined or do I see concrete form impressions in the concrete walls?
Here's a couple of pics of my 8X12 layout.

Well I don't often post on this thread, but I thought that this GP powered passenger train was kind of nice. Its a Lionel Burlington GP-7 from 1955-1956 but some newer K-line passenger cars.
Best wishes, after 2 weeks of deep cold its 72 degrees (can you believe it ?) and sunny here in Central Texas today!

Hi guys for a Saturday afternoon there sure is a lot of wonderful pictures!
@Sitka Mark Great car! It must have been hired to film the pony while out training for the upcoming race!
@BAR GP7 #63 Johan you have to be one brave person to be in there to catch that picture! Your braver then I am!
@Jim Johnson Great looking layout! But now I just have to have a BOOBIE HATCH for my layout! I hope it is ok with you!
@trumpettrain Patrick you sure have a great crew working for you! I would have to say Tiny sure is a professional!
@Genemed Gene the courtyard look perfect for a picnic and watching train! Love the scenery!
Hope your all having a great weekend!
A little activity at the road crossing heading out of town. A ABBA set waits for orders to move into the maintenance yard to latch up to the California Zephyr. Geep 35 waits for track orders to move on to the main.
Still waiting for those orders.
