 While I am sure this not what you where looking for Micheal, it was the only photo I could find.

 

 It is a 9 stall engine house and they work on steam (will hold a Big Boy) and the Diesels as well.

 Show me something that you where told where junk and you now love.

 OK, me first. Laugh

I have laid most of the track, installed all the switch motors, and painted most of the rail since this picture was taken

 Let's see some more unfinished layout.

Hank in the Boxcab bringing much needed medicine to Mt. Coffin:

 I know they used to ship whiskey in tankers: one fell off the ATSF barge into the San Francisco Bay but didn't rupture or leak (much to the chagrin of the fish, who wanted to drink like... well, a fish).

Anyone have any whiskey tankers?
