da Root of da Broadway LION

Lion did go up to train room yesterday.

Fixed a gremlin, took some pics. Can't stand too long without sitting down.

Here are some pics:

And... From the Train Room Window...

This is the Sand Plant built by Haliburton, but sold to a different company. They still handle fracing sand, but mostly we see oil tank cars there. They did lease a real locomotive. Maybe I should go over there and play with their trains!

Nah... Those are oil tankers from the Bakken Oil Express, Company is the same, just a place to park many more cars than they can keep on their Dickinson site. They seem to maintain and clean them here in Richardton.
