CSX_road_slug Show me a rural 1-track main line (at least 85% scenicked)
Now that's something I can come up with very easily since the SLOW is a one track mainline for most of its length...
Show me an Abandoned Tunnel Portal.
Ray Seneca Lake, Ontario, and Western R.R. (S.L.O.&W.) in HO
We'll get there sooner or later!
How about that, my first pic ever. The tunnel is under renovation, so will not be abandoned for much longer, but it is now. The two cars are leftovesr from my previous life back in the 60's.
Show me a sunset. (This has been my project in July, I'd like to see what others have tried.)
Art:
Is a sunset shot of the "Pioneer Zephyr" on the Buttes okay?

My only steam locomotive is an UP Challenger excursion train. Why no UP love here?

An old wrecked steamer in Roaring Creek gorge. DJ.

Grampys Trains An old wrecked steamer in Roaring Creek gorge. DJ. DJ, That is a great photo! Supposedly there is a real steam loco in the creek under the bridge near Spencer NC. One of my friends in Charlotte told me about it some years back. He swears that when the creek gets low you can see it's outline on the bottom, and that occasionally it gets low enough to get a little above the water. Apparently, according to him, there was a wreck (obviously) involving the loco and it's train. They were able to salvage the rest of the train and it's tender but the loco was just too heavy so they just left it there. I've heard other people nod their heads and say "Yup" but I have no other corroboration than that, and I haven't seen it personally. Still, either way, makes for an interesting story. Thanks for the picture, very cool! John

shayfan84325 says show me a Climax
Jarrell
Climax coming up. Here it is pulling the logger's hunting stand and then back at the logging camp doing real work.
Show me something Milwaukee, maybe an F6
Something Milwaukee, YES!!! Well not an F6 (sorry), but an FP7 comparison between an altered Athearn & the Full Scaled one in our town's Park!
Show me something Kit-Bashed (preferably Loco or Rollingstock)..
How about a hammerhead RS-3 bashed from an Atlas N scale model?
Show me a local coal dock.
Here's a coal dock....
Show me a crossover with signals
It amazing how fast this thread goes. I looked on Saturday evening on page 30 or 31, was busy yesterday at Boothbay running the HO display layout and did not get to the forum. Here we are Monday afternoon, on page 34. Just blink and you have missed a page or two!!

Motley Here's a coal dock.... Show me a crossover with signals
I've been enjoying this thread a lot, but it appears that we may be high-centered on this one. Shall we try for something else? How about an open-platform observation car?
Nice coal dock. No crossovers or signals, does this count as an open platform observation car?
Show me something you think I have never seen before.
Perhaps, you have not seen a Pendulum Coach. Only three of these cars were built. Look at the shape of the windows. Only one was sold to each of the following railroads:Santa Fe, Burlington Rout, and Great Northern.
Please show a highway bridge over tracks.
A couple of highway bridges over tracks and a crossover with signals to boot.
Show me passengers on benches at a train station.
Alton Junction
Show me a statue in a park.
It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.
A statue in a park? That's easy. We got one dedicated to the Boys who served way back in the Civil War in the park at Hopewell Junction. You can listen to the band play while you check it out!
Show me a Horse and Buggy.
richhotrain A couple of highway bridges over tracks and a crossover with signals to boot. Show me passengers on benches at a train station.
I knew Rich would come through with those! (now back to our regularly scheduled program)
