a picture a day....

JHZ563,

Ah does that bring back memories.  I spent most of the first half of my 41 years employment working at power company with control and telecommunications, the last 21 years have been with a telecommunications company.  I remember the power stations well.  Where is this station along the NS?

Here is one for today.

I just finished this kit.

a few odds & ends.....

Here are some for today.

How about some General Tso's Chicken?

I went to an op session on a large HO layout yesterday, and very close nearby is this:

It's sitting in the back of a grain-feed-trailer place near the airport. Though the staff there says it's been 'restored', I it's really a slightly smaller than 1:1 scale replica, built by a guy nearby. I could only find this mention of it along with the coach that was built at the same time. But solid info is really hard to find.

At the end of this line, there's a 3-foot shay slowly being rebuilt. There were parts of that and NG freight cars scattered all over the place.

It's just a straight stretch of track right now, but the people there claim they'll run trains there once the Shay is done. I won't hold my breath waiting for it, though.

My updated"spine car"...

The "spine Load" is what this model NTTX car was created from. Like they used to say for the cigarette Virginia Slims... 

You've come a long way baby!
