Show me more F (3,7,9, AA, AB, ABA, etc.) consists.

Here is a 'roster' shot of one of my F7 A units coupled to a B unit on a diorama.  It's the only type of photo I could share since there is no scenery on my layout yet.

Let's keep the 'covered wagons' theme going, show us some F units, E units, FA's, PA's - whatever you've got!

Here you go. I made it y spreading joint compound on the side of the mountain and the mashing crinkled tin foil into it. I then used diluted acryilic paints to stain it. Show me a bascule bridge.

It's been a day and a half with no activityZzz, so I will drop back one request and show another passenger train -  going around the roundhouse on the Boothbay Railway Village layout. It's an old picture, but it's an old request as well. Smile, Wink & Grin

Show me something else going on at a roundhouse

Karl, I sent you a pm about your fleet's ditch lights.  I thought I'd let you know here, as I'm not sure if everyone's pm alert actually works, as mine doesn't, so I check it once and while.
