Here are two cows, but they are of the moose variety.

 Show me something other than a track bumper at the end of a siding.

It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.

An old photo from my website. It may not be the kind of yard office you had in mind, but a yard office nevertheless.

Show me your fuel dealer.

Remember its your railroad

Sorry, we are out of dogs today. Would a swallow do?

This is Kato´s newest release, an N scale JNR C 62 2 "Tsubame" (=swallow) I have on order in Japan.

Now show me a dog, if you can!

Stinson Canning on the Boothbay RR Village layout. The "water" is just black paint now; we have a lot of work yet in the harbor scene to do before we make the BIG POUR

Show me an ice covered lake, pond or river

Times up... But still urban railroading... (but at least it is a new day, and so the LION gets to post again)

How fast can your trains go?

sow me some more panned photography on your lay out if you have any otherwise, show me something else!

Commuters are the LION's specialty. Him took more pictures yesterday, but the camera is still up in the train room since the LION was called away to take someone to the emergency room for stitches. ER was crazy, there was a bus crash on icy roads south of here: 23 kids from a school basketball team were on board. Fortunately, though the bus rolled 1 and a 1/4 times, injuries were all minor.

Show me a school bus, preferably NOT rolled over in a ditch.
