just having some, "FUN with our RailRoads"

                                     practicing a little weathering...  LOL

briansilvermustang:  I "love" your Marx weathering, I have a number of Marx freight cars that are weathered the same way ! 

By the way, the Pennsylvania "BEEP" (at least I believe its a BEEP) is really cool.  Did you do the paint job to make it a PRR or was it offered that way from AMT ?   I like these little loco's  (I have a White AF and a light blue Navy Yard version) and a Pennsy one would be cool.  I don't know why this company went out of the business, I always thought their products were cool and to a guy that runs 0-31 as my "big" radius , they were great.

Don, I may have a spare of this one much cheaper tan eBay.

Dave:  I am interested.  i looked up the one on e-bay and with shipping it is well north of $100.  I am more interested in it running well and some scratches in paint etc are less a concern.  You can contact me at dpmcerlean@gmail.com if you decide to sell.

Western Maryland passenger trains.

          having a blue & yellow day...

More Blue and Yellow

You guys are having way to much fun with the Blue & Yellow! LOL

Blue and Yellow!  My high school's colors, my wife's school colors, our daughters' school colors and one other school's colors in Butler County.  Four schools' colors in one county!    We called it blue and gold, but it was really yellow.  Kind of like the Steelers black and gold is really black and yellow to my eye.

                   one more blue & yellow...

                            really like this caboose...

                     a present from Marci...

                she says to go with this grumpy looking guy...   I like him though...

I had fun making the best of this wreck a while back.  I created  a scene with  first arrival of MOW workers.  Good times!

Fun times in Patsburg! 

More fun taking photos in the dark!!   I had fun creating this scene depicting MOW night operations.  I used a LED light pointed directly at the scene so the LED would reflect off the front of the pickup truck ... allowing the pickup to give the illusion of headlights  on.   Good times!!

 Not much time to play trains for me. Vehicle maintenance and Hunnydo lists but here is a vid from last month or so of some trains running

                                       sure is a nice day outside today...

                                       hope everyone has a great day !! 

Had lots of fun creating these scenes last weekend. 

One of the nice things about a tabletop temporary layout is I can change it whenever I want. So, got out the Plasticville and moved the circus/fantasy Worlds Fair to the outskirts of town. I love Plasticville— a toy train runners dream. I bought a huge box of buildings used from my LHS a few years ago!

Fun times continue today, however, here is some fun from early 2016.

Gonna need more than a caboose with Budweiser printed on it to wash down the Pringles Brian !

             you are right Bob !    fortunately it was a two part train,

                                      with the second section following close behind  

                                 have a great weekend everyone !!!

 Here are a couple of my favourite pics

Took these shots last night.  Posted similar shots on SWSAT MARK 2 today, however, I used some photo editing for these pics.   The Patapsco and Back Rivers VO1000, by MTH, pulls a 20 car freight with no problem.  It will be working on my railroad for many years to come!

Late afternoon

The milk trains. 

       it's been really nice out here lately...

        hope everyone is having a great week  !!

I created this scene last night for the Team Track Transload Tuesday thread ... but it does not seem to be appearing on OGR today .... so I thought I'd share here instead.   It TT/TT does appear today I do have additional photos which I will post there.    

I always derive great satisfaction  in  coming up with scenes such as this one.   For me this is the real fun part of the hobby!

 trumptrain, I and I'm sure many of us enjoy seeing all of them, great scenes

here are a few of mine

                 intermodal freight has been getting busy here lately...

A couple more pics of the scene I created this past Monday night. 

Today is a great day for a cold one!!
