Show me something. November 2017

On October 31st, G Payne said: "Show me another small switcher."

This is as small a switcher as I have on the BRVRR.

Ok, here's an articulated 2-6-6-2 tank engine with oil bunker and an extra fuel oil tender. Project still in progress.

Those pictures were taken with my first digital camera.

For the second season LL Bean has invited Boothbay Railway Village to bring the Christmas layout to their store. We finished the setup last night. (Just for something a bit different, more to come in WPF.)

Show me more photos you haven't posted...

Well, it is not wood chips, but it is a different kind of load!

I got this picture of a Garfield Central hopper at a grade crossing carrying a load of Christmas ornaments!
