Another great BTB. You should see if the "lost beggining musical number" can be added back in, Laugh. The Weaver Hudson looked exceptional (but out of my price range, haha). The railroad atlas you showed also looked interesting and if I ever got it, it would probably be for the same reason you did (Ohio). Can't wait for the next episode!

Hhmm, I spent quite a bit of time moving cars into, out of and around in the B&O Ivorydale yard there by P&G in Cincy. Need to do a "google earth" to see if anything other than P&G is still there.

Yup. Family roots (all long gone, now) in Hamilton, Cincinnati, and up in Knox county, NE of Columbus. The first protoype photos I shot were of the Pennsy & B&O in Hamilton, and the first color slides were of (ironically), mostly Pennsy engines in the PC (ex-NYC) Sharonville roundhouse/shop north of Cincinnati.

 RE BTB 12: Curious about your interest in Ohio--could it be that you're a former Buckeye as I am myself?  And of course the late, great NYC running through northeast Ohio with the Collinwood engine yards were quite a site!  BTW, what do you think of Lionel's latest conventional NYC FM diesel. H16-44?

Great series and keep it up!

Featuring a Weaver 4-6-4, a custom-run flatcar for JR Junction, the new Diecast Direct catalog and a 1946 railroad atlas from Johns Hopkins University Press. Oh, keep watching after the "so long" sign-off.
