Garry: "Please show any part of your layout."

The southwest corner of the BRVRR layout with a view of Black River and a NYC coal drag on the  eastbound mainline.

How about a panoramic layout photo.   Any photo any subject. Lets keep 'Show Me Something' moving.

Hard to compete with what is on display here. Here are a couple of photos of my 4' X 10' Black River Valley Railroad.

The East end of the BRVRR:

The West end of the BRVRR.

Until I looked closely at these photos, I didn't realize how out of date they are. New photos are coming.

More layout photos, please.

I can't get the whole layout in a photo. Here are two views. Each is at the opposite end of my 64' long train room. The walls have several 90 degree corners. Width of the room, varies from 10' to 16'. The layout follows about 130' of walls. It is double track; point-to-point; with a loop at each end. In each of the pictures there is some layout behind the camera and out of view. 

 

 

Please show more layout overview photos.

A box car loaded with crates of bags of lime being unloaded at a warehouse.

The shipper learned sometime ago to load the bags of lime on skids then box them in a crate so he has no damaged bags at the destination.

Please show us more box cars being loaded or unloaded.

How about a modern grain storage facility?

I have never seen grain storage bins like these in real life, but they had the Cargill logo on them, so I hope they work. This scene is on the Atlanta Interlocking Model Raiolroaders train show modular layout.

Show me any type of storage bin, bunker, or housing.

Before the Great War Countries were preparing for it.

In 1909  The British Government ordered Railway companies to build Ambulance Trains.   Military Manouvres took place in preparation of an invasion from a 'Country in the East'.

It is early  1914.    Here are some Nursing Staff  on a practice  at Leeds Sovereign Street Station

Here is another from years gone-by. My two youngest grandsons running trains on the BRVRR some five-years ago.

More little people of any variety, please.
