I believe it was Iowa Interstate you were looking for...  How about some nicely custom painted N scale IAIS...

Now show me a sleepy, weed grown branch line....

Would that be the Institute for American Indian Studies ?  Seriously, what is the IAIS?

Show me something from the IAIS

I have figured out what is wrong with my brain!  On the left side nothing works right, and on the right side there is nothing left!

It's a Proto 2000 E8 on the northbound end of a regional passenger train. A cab car is on the south end. This was the only locomotive able to pull that trainset up the hill. The photo is from my older and now gone layout "The Eregion Railroad" The train is in the Fornost Station.
