Lookin' good Tom. I'm hoping to have a few pictures for next week, now that I know how to post them thanks to you. I took some trying out a new (used) lens, 70-300 mm, that came in this week. The roll is at the developers, also having it put on disc. Hopefully the photos turn out, I was playing with depth of field and timed exposure without flash, etc.

Hey Roger, that should be some good ones. Now I need to go "shoot" some with the new track layout and a lot of the Wedding Presents Mountains gone. [:D]

Sunday afternoon and the CN fast coal train passes the NS SD90's freight on the Chief Eagles Short Railroad Line. [CN UBoats are running in conventional and the SD90 in digital DSC]


Well after some more track modifications, I now have a inner loop inside the inner loop. The CN high speed grain train [running in conventional] passes a NS SD90 freight that is passing a NS SD90 coal train [both operating in digital].


Another view [notice that most of the wedding presents mountains are hauled away].

Chief--

I enjoyed the pic's, you are having fun just runnin' trains and that's what it's all about. Soon the room will be your's. I remember after our oldest son got married my wife said, here's your stuff we've stored it long enough, "but Mom", I helped him load it.

So many roads, so little time.

Jon: This one gets mad everytime I take or give her stuff from the room. She even gets puffy if you mention her getting her stuff. Gave her the answering machine and portable phone from her room [she had her own line up there]. Told her I had connected our line up there. She was not happy. She will not clean out the linen closet in her old bath so we can fix it like we want. Think she wants to keep two residences. [:D] Need to post some photos of your great layout.
