cwclarkSilverSpike Hey Chuck! Great story board for the next video....errrrr....you are going to video tape this as a segment aren't you That might be a bit too tough to video without the brakeman looking and moving too much like those old "Gumby" cartoons. Of course I guess I could put him in one of those "Sir Toppum Hat" poses from "Thomas the Tank Engine" There's nothing like the animation of a big fat guy stealing a scene standing there motionless and staring into space. Some things are just too tough to accurately prototype.... :) chuck

I guess you've never seen a Conrail worker then
I'll have to look at this at home.
Shutterfly pics don't function here at work.
Chuck, great little story and great modeling. Great looking locos. And of course, the boxcar doesn't have a half-bad name on it either (here's a hint ya'll; The packers are located in what city? )

Hey cwclark, please check PM's. Thanks
I have to agree with Ryan - would make a neat video segment.
I love your ground cover - the "weeds" look great.

That open air shed looks really good!
The local gets train orders from the dispatcher to drop a boxcar at the lumbermill. A GE B30-7 will stop to switch just past the gravel road.
The switchman is hard at work.
The train leaves the main for the lumbermill with it's load.
The train spots its load at the loading platform.
The consisted EMD SD 40 slowely helps push the boxcar into position. That's it! The brakeman gives the engineer an "all stop" hand signal.
The end of a succesful spot. From the caboose, the brakeman waves good-bye to the camera man
