Thanks for looking!

RickMy 2 Cents

Rule 1: This is my railroad.

Rule 2: I make the rules.

Rule 3: Illuminating discussion of prototype history, equipment and operating practices is always welcome, but in the event of visitor-perceived anacronisms, detail descrepancies or operating errors, consult RULE 1!

Eric97123 .... Thanks for starting Weekend Photo Fun. I'm sure the car weathering guys will apreciate seeing the prototype pictures.

I operated a few trains yesterday. Upper level has my "Heartland Zephyr" which is my version of the Kansas City Zephyr. A single E8 is adequate for hauling just 4 or 5 cars.

The lower level has FT's which are Stewart models. I purchased undecorated models for only $30.00 per AB set ($60.00 total) at a train show. I love good deals like that. I assembled and painted the units. I installed the grab irons and installed DCC.
