OK OK so it’s not trains, [#offtopic] but it is neat. [:D][8D][:p][;)]

Thanks Guys. I am glad you like the pics. I hate to tell you how many pics I took of Blue Skies trying to take these. The time delay on the digital cameras can be tricky to get action shots.

Here are some more

My brother took a ride on that B17 and on the B25. He paid a couple of hundred dollars for each but said they were worth every dime...We saw the B17 come over the house last year.
