More passenger car stuff if you would please.

I hope no one thinks this is inapropriate.

As a token of honor, I am closing out the month with a tribute to one of our greatest contributors.

Continue, please, with anything passenger related.

 
How about a CB&Q corrugated stainless steel Silver Streak set.
 
 
Just completed the set yesterday with 2nd locomotive add on #9911A E5A Silver Pilot.

Please show another dining car or anything related to serving food.

 

A pair of diners are being replenished for their next trip.

Since the month is almost over, no point in changing the theme now. Let's stick with diners.

Dat's Kool.

Thanks, TF. After I did my first ride around the layout video and saw unfinished tunnel innards, I decided my tunnels needed a better look on the inside.Laugh

I cheated to stage this photo. This is on my short line which only has a ten wheeler and a doodlebug for motive power.

After adding a partial upper level over some of my original layout, I realised that some turnouts on the lower level were now a lot more difficult to reach.  I was able to pick-up four Rapido turnout motors at a very reasonable price, but it was more work than I had expected to install them, and more mess, too...

...this one was the hardest to reach, both due to the distance and the fact that nearby structures were not removeable...

I did get them installed though, and they work well.  Here's one after the clean-up...

These two operate off the same fascia-mounted switch, as both need to move if the crossover is to be used...

...and the hardest-to-reach-one got cleaned-up, too...

Wayne

More layout changes or improvements, please.
