"Show Me Something"
Dedicated to the originator, Jarrell
This is a place where forum members can post their photographs featuring a view of a "requested" scene or object..
As Ed requested, "Another diesel/steam powered train, please", here's one.
Please show me something interesting.
Cheers, the Bear.
"One difference between pessimists and optimists is that while pessimists are more often right, optimists have far more fun."
Thank you for starting the August Show Me Something thread, Bear!
Interesting? Well

When it comes to interesting scenes, the First Coast Model Railroaders group's HOn30 portable show layout is hard to beat.

I dunno whether it's all that interesting, but after adding new passenger platforms between the tracks at Dunnville, I decided, around 3:00AM, to finally ballast the tracks. Here's the "before" view...
...and the "after", with another day or two for the glue to dry...
...and still more to be done.

I decided a chemical plant would squeeze into the space and give my tank car fleet a reason for being.
