What is being loaded or unloaded along your railroad?

From operators of highly detailed layouts to those with a simple loop of tinplate, everyone is welcome to participate in our weekly Team Track photo adventures.

Don't have a Team Track? No worries, any track will do. Share a few pictures of what's being loaded, unloaded, parked, or exhibited on your railroad. Pictures of real trains are welcome, too!

What is a Team Track?

Team tracks (aka: public delivery tracks and transload facilities) have long been an important part of railroad operations. They can be found in rural countrysides, small towns, and large cities. These non-dedicated sidings make it possible for any small businesses to access to the nation's rail network. Virtually any type of freight car can be on/off loaded at a team track. One week it might be a load of quickrete and the next a reefer full of produce. The possibilities are endless.

Join the fun, share what's being loaded, unloaded, parked, or exhibited on your railroad's sidings.

I was wondering if we could just drop the date on every TTT so those who are ready to post TTT pics we can do so. Kinda like Front End Friday is and West coast Wednesday. Sorry in advance if I stepped on anyone’s toes. Thanks

Please share your thoughts.

Very nice seans everyone!!  

Thomas the Link Belt Ice Slinger photo is awesome   Also love those team track scenes with the 1930s trucks.  That's the era when team tracks thrived in the big cities.  

Lee - very nice White cabover tractor!!  Did you build it from a kit?   Love the REA trailer as well.

On the team track today:  Big Hooker is on hand having just finished lifting a load of steel wire from a flatbed trailer to a B&O gondola.  The crew will break for lunch after all is said and done and perhaps play a game of billiards at Boyds.    Ozzie, the forklift operator, stands by to do any lite work, however, there is no lite work to be done.  IMG_4476IMG_4480IMG_4482IMG_4463

Patrick. Thanks yes I built it many years ago and built a Berkshire Valley trailer to match it. You can see it in some of my pics I post.
