The Alaska RR on the Seattle & Yakima RR

Thank you Peter for sharing the pics and videos of York.  Never having gone at least I get to see what I'm missing.

And along those lines I was all set to share pictures from the very fun to attend Ashland Train Day.  Alas, only one picture came out unless everyone wants to see photos of my thumb or the back of someone's head.

Happy Weekend.

It is early morning in late 1949 and a doodlebug is heading out a branch line with only a few passengers.  The Pennsy would have abandon this route by now if it were not for the U.S. Mail contract.  Like nearly all Pennsy gas-electrics, this doodlebug, a Brill 660, was upgraded with a diesel engine after the 1940 Cuyahoga Falls collision that killed 46 people.  35 of the passengers died due to the gasoline fire that resulted from the collision.

This is a GGD model with TMCC.

Work in progress, but here's the growing downtown area on our layout!   Most of the tall buildings still need lighting, details, and window treatments added.... but the major construction of these ones is complete

Weekend Photo Fun has begun early. I have to run to Columbia, SC in the morning before going to the Lionel Warehouse tomorrow night. I will be checking people in at the LCCA table tomorrow evening.

I have been traveling all week, my only train day has been at the club working on the tinplate layout expansion. Tuesday night Joshua and I finished the bench work and now have a 10 by 8 foot expansion table in the next room.

<snip: pics were here>

Let's see your pictures.  I sure hope they are better than the ones I just posted.

Scott Smith

Not a thing wrong with your pics, Scott. I always enjoy seeing pics of you, or Joshua, or you and Joshua together, enjoying the hobby.

A few photos from my recent visit to Strasburg PA with my family

Working on a pile of 50' DD boxcars this weekend, the first one out is this is Lionel I got a while back. It's lowered slightly (it never sat level out of the box), KD-ized and weathered. I've been playing around with Vallejo chipping solution lately:

My railroad empire is located in the finished bonus room on the attic level.  There are two skylights that let in a good deal of sunlight in the morning.  Here's a couple of pics from this morning.
