One Milk Car on the Morning Milk Run Train.  They picked up the milk from farmers along the tracks and brought the kids to School way back when....  The afternoon run got the kids back home and the now empty and cleaned cans back to the farmers.

Show me another daily short train of some kind.

A doodlebug counts as a train in the timetable, and it is as short as you can get. 

Please show some railroad employees at work.

OK, my roundhouse has a bunch standing around because they’re either through working on my massive Cab Forwards or haven’t started yet depending on the time of day.
 
 
 
These guys are at it.
 
 
More workers please.

Well here is two guys showing off their brand new 4-4-0 to their bud's at the elevator. It is so new that it doesn't even have the name of the RR put on it yet. Notice how new and shiney their coveralls are? Obviously they have not been working very hard today.

Don't show me more RR workers working. Please show me some RR workers, hardly working.Sleep

Old Grandpa Earl stopped by the Roundhouse at Hopewell to show off his new Model A Ford to some of his old friends still having to work.  But when he went to leave it seems the battery was dead...  So the crank was gotten out and the guys will get Earl up and running in a jiffy....

More people on the railroad, please.

When I was a youngster my father (Ed Perry) and uncle (Al Perry) owned a mountain cabin and they called it Perrydice.  This is my Perrydice on my mountain.  The grandkids are washing their car.

This dog gets around. He could not decide on whether to pee on the Corvette or the fire hydrant. He chose wisely.

Show me a dog.
