Good Afternoon all
Some fine pichers today. For those interested in things MLW see if you can find the MLW volume in Ed Kirkland's Diesel Builders series. Pricy as all get out if you can find it, but good.

A teaser from the Sydney and Louisburg RY's museum in the old Sydney NS Train station on Cape Breton.
Sorry Guys I'm a little boared so here's another couple shots from the Sydney and Louisburg railway Museum.
The trolleyMAN figured out how to "do" his vacation shots!
So what did you think of your ride in the dome Great way to travel for sure! Looks kinda <funky> attached to those European cars though . . . I liked it bettAH when it was an all Budd consist <the way it should be!>
Hey! Aren't you suppposed to be posting these at the bAH?????
Depot photos are fine too . . .
My offering for the day . . .
Something really different from Rob . . . and I agree, Post those over at the bar - the guys will appreciate 'em far more than what I expect you'll get here . . .
Lars - you keep on keeping on, Mate!
Mine for the day . . .
Evening gents. Yup the barflies will get the vacation shots on some of the upcomming saturday's as well. lars I have to say that the dome looked good but we were not able to partake of it's pleasures, that story to will come up at the bar eventually , suffice to say our Ocean trip was not as memorable as it should have been. Long story short we got sold a hill of beans by teh station agent in Brantfiord where we bought our tickets ( next long train trip we will book through the central ticketting office )We didn't get a sleeper ticket so weer not allowed to enter the "better" relms of the train ie the dinners or the Dome car.
Loved the book and poster pics for today gents here's my contribution to the "lonely" thread.
Good stuff continuing from Da Bossman 'n Rob . . .
WHAT is this about NOT being permitted in the dome car???? Something to be explained ovAH at the bAH I'd say. Sounds like something got lost in the cracks . . .
Gday folks, bad story Lars , I will tell over at the bar , suffice to say we got sold a bum steer to be sure Interesting cover for today sir.Here's another one from me.
Always thought that combined GT & CN ad was "cool" . . . nice one Rob! And as always, Lars keeps us going with those great book covers . . . .
Something from north of the US border . . .
Things are lookin' mighty fine ovAH here, in spite of not attracting any "new blood." The "hits" continue - but apparently there's far fewer who wanna engage in conversation . . . such is life, huh
My offering for this Thursday . . .
morning gents. I see that we are still perking along today, a fine selection from the Lars bookmobile. It's amazing how many railroad books have been produced over the years,not that I'm complaining. Here's a tidbit from myself today.
Howdy to Lars 'n Rob . . .
Something featured over at the bar . . .
An offering to the lonely Thread for this Friday . . .

Looks like you beat me to the punch ovAH here . . .
Here's something I ran ovAH at the bAH . . .

Enjoy! [
Hmmm Classic Alco's and TGV's on the same thread , where else but here eh Here's another classic Alco for everyone.
TGV's - Alco's 'n we can't get anything going with conversation. Pretty much speaks for itself, huh
Good to see our trolleyMAN stop by . . .
My offering for this gloomy Monday where I'm at . . .
A CLASSIC railway book from the UK that we're having a bit of fun with over at the bar:
Gday folks. I see that the bookmobiles have been busy over here again, all good. It tis to bad that more conversation doesn't happen here but "whatcanyoudo". I think more Alco's from me today.
