Heartland Division CB&QSimon: Did I see the Mallard? !!! Nice photos.
You sure did, as well as the Flying Scotsman. I like running my Brits on the US rails. Good to see the Q represented so well on the photo forum this week!

This week, my projects included a model of Colorado & Southern 700D. C&S was owned by CB&Q, and their equipment was painted and letter accordingly. 700D was an ordinary F7-A when built. It was involved in a head-on collision in 1958. Next, it was rebuilt at EMD, and became a F9-Am which was internally an F7-A and externally an F9-A.
I scanned a page from The Colorado Road by F. Hol. Wagner with photos of 700D. In the center photo, you can see it was broken into numerous pieces. The E7-A in the collision was not rebuilt.
The next photo shows my model of 700D which I made from a Stewart F9-A. This picture is before weathering.
The final photo shows 700D at work with some of my CB&Q F units.
Simon: Did I see the Mallard? !!! Nice photos.
Robby... Teh AA box car is yet another great one.
Mr. B .... Those Jordan kits are fun, right? What no summer recess for school?
A line of cars all stacked up behind a school bus.
It's a Jordan. I'm slowly working my way through my inventory of unbuilt kits, at about 1 a week. Trouble is, it takes less time to buy another one than to build it.
It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.
Great weathering job, looks really convincing.
Here is a hopper way out of its normal area of travel!
I guess I will start, and I'm sure we will get some GREAT shots!!
