Okay, I know that it is too early, but I have to beat Spankybird to the punch again!

Here is a photograph from today's DCS Demonstration at the Western Division TCA Meet in Arcadia, California:

Out of deference to Spanky, who for almost two years has seen to it that Sunday Photo Fun has been posted through thick and thin, I will wait until he posts his photos this week before I post mine.

Laz,

Apparently I have no morals, whatsoever. That being said, it must have been Sunday somewhere in the world...

Tom--

Artistta (sp?) does the riders, excellent attention to detail and they actually have decent weight for such small guys.

Here's one more pic

Christmas 2004:




And finally, I continue with my idea of including a sketch. I liked this layout design - it featured what I called a 'mystery train'. All of those cross tracks, the green lines, are under the plateau, so all that mis-direction is unseen by the viewer. The train might enter the plateau portal in the top left but leave in the bottom right, etc.! Kids liked it cause I pretended to do magic and make it disappear and re-appear.

Decided to let the cattle out for a spin around town:



It's kinda dark, the consist is a 2025 w/2466wx pulling 2 6656s and 2 3656s. Bringing up the rear is a 6257 caboose.

I need to get my corral set up to give the cows a place to stretch their legs.
