The Shay pulling the log train through the town of Sublime is as local as I get. The town is inspired by either Tofte or Minneska, depending on which way you are traveling

jalajoie Doctorwane, I love everything about this photo, track arrangement and building. Do you mind if I save it for future reference for my modules.

Thanks for your kind words, jalajoie, and by all means save it if you wish. If, for any reason, you post it somewhere, I would, of course, appreciate a word of credit.

superbe Wayne, you have stirred up my curiousity as to what you had in mind by under wire. Since no one replied I thought you might tell us.

I was thinking of an interurban, but a trolley, streetcar, or heavy electric would have worked, too.
The team track at Dunnville, at right, along the edge of the layout:
Show me a steam loco switching an industry.
1925... Still some teamsters driving the real thing.

This is the rail-served loading dock door of a warehouse at the back of my layout.
Show me a gondola with a scrap-metal load.
It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.
Here is a staging yard. Visible but used to stage freight trains that are supposed to be gone somewhere else. The layout is unfinished so the cars are just posed, not part of trains being staged.
On the blue foam in right corner wiill run the "SNEAK CONNECTION" where on show-the-non-operators night, trains can run a continuous oval instead of going into staging
Yes, it is visible and even scenicked. But since it is not operated like a marshalling, switching or terminal yard, it serves as staging.
Though visible, it will be behind a 3 track "Port Terminal switching yard" and a 5-track trunkling railroad switching yard, in a place where the bporototype had several railroads with yards side by side. So it is masquerading as "another one of the yards," to be ignored by operators, Just part of the scener. Since it is impersonating an unrelated but nearby yard, I name it Demara Yard after the Great Impersonator of the 1960-something movie of that title.
Show me a railroad with some connection to outer space.
I assume the something electric meant under an overhead wire system, like a street car. If I am wrong, here is a lot of wire under. This was for my DC era, it is since gone but was fun to make.
So I ask for nothing new.
Here's an oversized load...
Show me a staging yard.

doctorwayne Show me something under wire. Dr. Wayne, Wayne, you have stirred up my curiousity as to what you had in mind by under wire. Since no one replied I thought you might tell us. Any women on the forum would have an answer but it wouldn't be train related. Happy RailRoading and Thanks. Bob
