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 areas, small towns, and large cities.  Almost all kinds of freight cars, some head end passenger equipment, and MOW equipment can be on/off loaded on team tracks.  

All are welcome to post your team track's activity here.  It does not matter if you layout is os highly detailed museum quality or a simple loop of track with an undesignated siding, you are welcome to post here.  

This week on the Free State Junction Railway's team track number 1 in lower Patsburg it seems the unloading crews have done their job ( well ... almost finished just a box left & being towed on a cart by the tow motor/forklift ) and all that is left is some empty boxcars.   Tomorrow these cars will be removed by the local way freight and whisked over to Patsburg yard and will soon begin their way westward on a westbound road freight.

WOW!! Photos are worth 10,000 words and you guys are saying it all!!  

Brian - those team track photos from the 30's are speaking out loud!!  And that Team Track Starter Kit is priceless!!!

Mark - the level of detail in your photos is astounding!!!  I love the B&O MOW panel truck.  Where did you get it?  

RSJB18 -  During slow times on the team track it's good to put the switchers in the shop for routine repairs.   The F3 can handle the light work  I like that little Plymouth switcher too! 

Tim - very nice ariel shot!!  

Coach Joe - thanks for stopping by!

Thanks Pat. That panel truck is a run-of-the-mill Menards die cast truck that I painted white and then raided my decal stash and pieced together the "M of W", etc. Then applied an India Ink wash to dirty it up. Same with the Pickup. However, the pickup was white to begin with.
