This is a shot of my new black bonnet A-B-A set.  I grew up with the 200 series Alcos.  Compared to them, this thing is great!

This is also my first attempt with my Cannon T3.  I've still got to play some more with lighting and camera settings.

Chief, I noticed you did not comment on the Buckeyes held by LAZ and John.  Would it be that you expect me to bring you more the next time I raid Roseyville??  Laugh


Good photos today, except my computer crashed again when I pasted that photo of the Chief.

Beautiful job Frank. Could you possibly post your track diagram at some point? I have loved seeing the progress you've made on the layout over the years.

Buckeye Riveter

Oldies but goodies today.

Mainline NS across northern Ohio. Which are Chief's locomotives.

One of the junk locomotives on the CSX shortline. Whistling

 

 

 

The Chief visits the Baltimore, Ohio and Wabash Railroad which builds and imporves the character of Buckeye and his layout. 

 

The famous Rogers Corners silo, home of the Baltimore, Ohio and Wabash RR where there is a photo of the Chief handing the Buckeye a bag of GRITS. Laugh

The famous Rogers Corners passenger station which normally shows the Buckeye passed out on the bench from too much moonshine.

Kev,

 

Lionel makes them.  They are conventional, but have a working horn and opening doors. 

Right now, the big online train retailers have them for only $99.

Riding the cab in Nappa Valley heading south.

The Chief visits the Baltimore, Ohio and Wabash Railroad and tries to abscond with several items but is thwarted by an ever vigilant Buckeye.

 Here are three photos of my last Christmas present to arrive.  I'm a big fan of Christmas-themed trains and these are fun.  I used my Blackberry to take the photo so I apologize for the mediocre photo quality.

 Joe who makes those Candy Cane cars? They are neat!

My latest MPC find, the N & W GP-9 in Bicentennial livery. 

I picked up the whole set, and it needs some TLC, but after a quick cleaning the engine started up

with the hum that only a conventional e-unit provides.

Kev - That's a neat way to use Walter.

Frank - Congratulations on finishing such a magnificent layout.  And thanks for sharing all the great photos.
