Here you are:

I started work on my third mini-module, which will show a level crossing. Needs ballasting and scenery put in - maybe this weekend.

Show me something with water.

Garry is, of course, correct.  Even though it is a very good photo the request was Show Me Something Wrecked.  The reason for that little rule is to try and keep the game from reeling out into left field where it would be harder to get it back on course.

Ulrich is requesting something Orange!  Smile

That's a nice photo, Ulrich, and I'm glad to see it. However, you did not follow Jarrell's rules.

Jarrell's first post in this thread explained the "rules" of this thread's game.

I suggest the next photo is "Show something wrecked" to be consistant with Jarrell's rules.

This is fun. This is my rendition of Uncle Tom's stairway down to the Yellowstone River (well almost all the way) in the Park. I walked it a few years ago and loved the stairway and the view of the falls.

Show me a hobo
