FIRST SNOWFALL, SEPT.1, 1940 | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

...in the Rockies coalmining and lumbering town of Coalforest. It is the morning

rush as ranchers, miners, and loggers head to jobs and begin their day. Traffic

will disappear, and then will reappear for the lunch rush to the counter in the company store, and then all will be quiet except for melting snow dripping off the roofs, if the sun comes out and it warms up enough, until the whistle blows

at the sugar tower and the gas electric grinds out of town.

I adjusted the two photos for you. Now, if I could only get my carpet layout to look this nice. Thanks for sharing some "REALLY AWESOME" photos. Killian
