This is a nice surprise! I was going to be busy this weekend anyways. <br /> <br />I'm new to this forum, mostly hang out at the Atlas HO forum but my guess is that it will be closing for summer soon and I think I will make this my new home, for a while anyways. <br /> <br />These photo were taken from the last time I had an operating session on my layout. <br /> <br />I posted this photo of my fictional railroad (the Roanoke & Southern) last weekend in the Atlas Sunday photo fun but I like this photo so much that I thought I would kick off my new start here with it. This is a photo of a coal shifter returning with a loaded coal train. I used photo shop to add some brake smoke and some heat blur. I also used a little photo shop to cut the water heater out of the back ground, in the future I will make a temporary back drop to block it out. <br /> <br />[img]http://www.railimages.com/albums/jeffkraker/ale.sized.jpg[/img] <br /> <br />Here is a tank car that was spotted at City Fuels. <br />[img]http://www.railimages.com/albums/jeffkraker/ala.sized.jpg[/img] <br /> <br />Another coal shifter finishes up spotting MTY hoppers at a coal tipple. <br />[img]http://www.railimages.com/albums/jeffkraker/alc.sized.jpg[/img] <br /> <br />A steam locomotive is spotted over the pit for an inspection between runs, looks like the report is not good. <br />[img]http://www.railimages.com/albums/jeffkraker/akz.sized.jpg[/img] <br /> <br />Westmoreland's company store was still the only place in town in the 50's to buy what you needed in this mountain town. <br />[img]http://www.railimages.com/albums/jeffkraker/akn.sized.jpg[/img] <br /> <br />Here is the once daily mixed train to Roda. <br />[img]http://www.railimages.com/albums/jeffkraker/ajy.sized.jpg[/img] <br /> <br />A mine shifter returns to the yard with another loaded coal train. <br />[img]http://www.railimages.com/albums/jeffkraker/ajo.sized.jpg[/img] <br /> <br />Thanks for letting me share my photos early, see you next weekend.
