HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! IT'S TEAM TRACK TUESDAY!!! Share your team track photos here!
Found in remote rural locations, small towns, and large cities, team tracks are a vital part of real railroad day to day operations. Team tracks service the on/off loading of most kinds of freight cars, some passenger train head end cars, and MOW cars/equipment.
The purpose of this thread is to inspire one another by regularly creating new team track scenes on our railroads and inspiring one another by sharing our photos. Changing team track scenes is a great way to engage the imagination in creative play and keeping layouts looking fresh with the creation of new scenes each week ( or as often as you time will allow ). Everyone is welcome! If you have a museum quality detailed layout, a simple oval of track with an undesignated spur, or somewhere in between, come join the fun and post your photos!
This week on the Free State Junction Railway in lower Patsburg, team track two's surrounding area has received a new makeover with the installation of a new unloading platform, and a general clean up of the area. Milk was the first freight load to be off loaded this week.
Also over in the " Brewtown " area, the team track has had its loading platform dismantled and actually moved to team track two. A new asphalt pad has been installed alongside the "Brewtown" team track. The first car to unload on this team track was a AT&SF barrel car and the second was a Robin Hood Beer reffer load of wooden kegs.
Go ahead and post your photos of action on your railroad's team track! We'd love to see them!
Again, HAPPY NEW YEAR to ALL!!! See ya next week on the TEAM TRACK!!
