I am happy to announce..... A new project list. <br />To acompany my oval, I have designed a mountain line for my railroad. I f you want to see the railroad design, e-mail me at locomotive10@aol.com. <br /> <br />Also, to raise money for my railroad, I am selling photos that I took of narrow gauge trains taht I took at Dollywood theme park in Pigeon forge tennesee. I got a picture from inside the cab of the fireman throwing coal into the firebox. You can see the coal in the glow of the fire. The second is the engine in use at the station taken from the walk in front of a western style eatery. The round tables, belive it or not, are old unused train wheels. You can see the haze of the smoke around the eatery and the cinders falling on the people. I took it just as the trains started out from the station. The third is one of the other engine that is not used. They have two ex-white pass and yukon narrow gauge mikados. The park has numbered them #70 and #192. The owner, Dolly Parton was not satisfied with just numbers. So she spent a day veiwing the trains inoperation. She closed the Park aand the two engines were fired up, she saw that #70 was not the hardest worker, yet put out alot of cinders, so she called #70 "Cinder"ella and #192 Klondike Katy, as that pulled #70 and the coaches with no strain, living up to her alaskan mountain name. <br /> <br /> <br />Any wayy, the mountain line will be added at a later date, after I fini***he track work of the first loop. <br /> <br />Nicholas Parker
