IT's TEAM TRACK TUESDAY!!! Share your team track photos here.

Team tracks are a vital part of day to day real railroad operations. Team tracks are found in remote rural locations, small towns and large cities. Virtually every kind of freight car can be off/on loaded on a team track. Passenger and MOW equipment can be as well. This week on the Free State Junction Railway's team track one in Lower Patsburg we have a RF&P box car of lumber being unloaded. These scenes are re - peats as I unfortunately didn't have time to create new scenes this week. Lets see what is happening on your team track. Go ahead and post your photos here! See ya next week on TTT!! Have a wonderfully creative week! thumb

It was a rather quiet week at the Everett Team Track & Community Park. A few days ago, an NS boxcar arrived with goods for local retailers – mostly lawn care supplies and outdoor power equipment.

The Railway’s Fire & Rescue Division stopped by to conduct training exercises. They’ve been itching to try out their new high capacity water car.

And this past Sunday, seasonal Picnic Train operations resumed. The Valley Railway boasts the finest Picnic Grounds in Cuyahoga Falls, Gaylord’s Grove, Silver Lake, and Zoar.

This year, the Railway is promoting a new “Canoe Aboard” service. Sunday Picnic Train riders departing Everett can leave their canoe at the Team Track and have it taken to the picnic grounds in Cuyahoga Falls – for free! If riders are willing to paddle their way back to Everett, tickets are just half price.

Meanwhile, over in Plasticville...
"Last week the commuter bus crashed. It was too big to fix in the Plasticville Garage, so the bus was taken to the team track. It will be shipped to the big city so they can fix it." - little abbrail

Great pics everybody. This week the milk is in as the dairy delivery trucks line up to get their morning load...

Meanwhile, over at Hisle's, one truck load of coal heads out as one empty returns to be re-loaded. Business is brisk as the end of season sale is going strong...

Happy TTT everyone. Thanks for another great week of fun, Patrick!

"Be advised: Due to several complaints regarding the difficulty of getting past the Edison Dam, the Valley Railway is suspending our Canoe Aboard service indefinitely. Any canoes left at the Everett Team Track & Community Park will be disposed of at week's end." - General Manager Isaac Reynolds
