A Lionel Northern Pacific AB set passes through the yard with a heavy special freight. An Atlas SP&S F-3 and Williams Baldwin Shark Demos are on red light holds.

After this near miss several weeks ago the NTSB and the EPA put in a requirement for a new containment dike at the tank farm.

The EPA inspector is giving approval to the Mobilgas representative so they can refill the tanks. Now the fueling station can resume operations again..

Hey Kev, nice work on the containment wall. Did the locomotive engineer take a breathalizer test ?

Bill,

Slow weekend for SPF.

Yes they did and blood work as well. It was too fast for conditions. Building it was a fun project.

Yep, looks like the interest for the Sunday Photo Fun is history. It was nice a couple years ago but like a lot of things it just faded away.

Bill,

Say it isn't so. Don't give up the ship! Here is my latest fine madness, a small vest pocket windup layout that lurks in the corner of my home office. My contribution to green layouts, although I might need orthopedic therapy from the key winding but it's fun. A good way to "unwind." Also..it doesnt effect my credit score like the other stuff. Look ma, no controller! Confused

Nothing is more fairly distributed than common sense: no one thinks he needs more of it than he already has.

It's summer and folks just might have had long weekend plans with the Holiday.  Don't let slow weeks bring and end to the fun that will likely pick up as the seasons change...
