Went for a walk this morning in southern Maryland and the haze from the smoke was bad even here.

Unfortunately I don't have a haze filter for this older video.  Need to update it.

Thank you.  I actually like the K4 Streamlined engine better than the Torpedo.  Here it is double-headed with another K4.

Hands are healing.  My left hand is becoming more usable as the palm heals, although I am right-handed and very uncoordinated with the left.  The right one will be in a full brace for 3-4 more weeks.  My wife is a great helper but I think she is catching on that I might be faking helplessness.

Just felt like running trains tonight .

Pennsy Electric running passengers............Pennsy F3 running frieght.

Have a good evening.    If you live out here in the northeast keep the windows closed.

Judy cut the grass yesterday .........it smelled like a hay field being cut.   Really dry.   Then today it smelled like someone was burning the hay.

  Had to stay inside at the layout and run trains

STILL much tooo DANGEROUS to go outside to do landscaping chores this morning..............  I have to be satisfied watching the Pennsy move out more passengers and freight

Stay safe and breath well INSIDE today .    God speed all.

Thank you Bob.   Quite a nice compliment  coming from ypu after seeing the amazing constructions on your layout.

The Pennsy freight consist construct. has been my little passion recently.      The ps3 Premier F3 is new this week and I should have a B unit before the end of next week. 🤔

Looks like clearing here too Mark.  Still no rain but praying for it.

Glad no masks too.   Clearing rapidly.

God speed to you Mark and everyone.

( if this clearing of the air continues......I'll probably have to leave the train room. )

Thanks for the comment about the " fleet of bikes ".

( whenever I stopped occasionally  at the VFM in Weedvile and wasn't inspired to look for rolling stock or locomotives I would pick up a package of the MTH motorcycles. )

Well I came down for dinner. Watching some TV. Number is still high. Map shows tomorrow could be better. Hopefully it will be completely clear on the W/E. My buddy and I are itching to take our cars to a show.

PRR E8s running light to next assignment.

Two PRR A5 0-4-0 steamers were at the coal dock waiting to get a load of coal.

#1587: "Hi 913, have not seen you in a while."

#913: "Yeah, I have been recuperating since my engineer ran me into a stopped train.

#1587: "Wow, you sure look good for having been in a wreck."

#913: "Physical therapy has been really good.  Working out every day now.

#1587: "Sure looks like it.  You have really bulked up."

#913: "That's right, weakling, so stay out of my way."

MTH on left, K-Line on right.  Both listed as scale.

Broadway Limited encounters local freight hauling pickles and fruit.

Happy 4th of July Pennsy Fans! God Bless America!

The PRR Broadway Limited exchanges passengers with the JC local.

Here is a compilation of clips I took of my Legacy PRR 460 (2010 release) a few months ago.

Other PRR prototypes featured in the video: Lionel B60b baggage, Golden Gate PB70 Combine, Atlas O H21a Hopper, Atlas O X29 Boxcar, and Brass Works ND Cabin Car.

My shameless plug... please watch some of my other videos - and if you have a channel yourself please subscribe. I am trying to eventually get monetized on YouTube to help fund my expenses in the hobby. The only way to do that is reach a subscriber and watch time quota!

I was hoping to show my Weaver PRR Passenger Shark AB consist today, but the B-unit still will not run in command.  I will start my search for a third technician to see if it can be fixed.

For now, here is my A-unit pulling an accommodation consist.  Really happy with its pulling power.

Consist made up of GGD, Atlas, MTH, and Lionel.

@CAPPilot

Ron, that’s a beautiful engine!

My Shark looks like a guppie in comparison.

PRR Then and now.
