With an hour and eight before August in my neck of the woods, your request may be a bit optimistic George, but as an optimist here’s one of my favourite scenes, Fishing off the Wharf, on one of the many modules created by my late friend Hans Hubner.
Maybe it was to late for our friends in NZ and Australia but for the rest of the world we got on page 4 on time. At 01:30 A.M. our bear was probably sleeping anyway.
Let us continue with Howmus request:

More favourite scenes shouldn’t be that much of an ask, is it?
My layout is far from finished so I have no choice to post this scene which is almost complete.
If my count is right we won't be far from page 4 with two more posts. To help George's wish happen, please Show me more favorite scenes or anything that pleases your eyes.
G PaineShow another favorite scene - last day this month can we put Show Me onto page 4 again????

A moody scene at Union Station... people going places!
Another favorite scene?
My curent favorite scene on the Boothbay Railway Village layout is the stairs of the background apartment building. The couple kissing on the top landing, the lady on the stairs giving a disapproving look, and the family on the way up.

Guy PapillonLet us continue with favorite locos.
Favorite? Well, they ALL finish in the top 99% but if I HAD to pick one...
• I grew up in the Cleveland area about a half mile from where these ran.
• I got to ride behind them several times between Harmon and GCT, New York.
• I love HEAVY Electrics... the POWER!
• They were built for passenger service, another fave!
Gotta have one more photo!

Hi Gang!
I haven't been here for a long time but I can contribute a couple of favourite locomotives:
First, the HOn30 critter in my avatar, scratch built from brass using a Bachmann N scale drive:
Second is a Grandt Line 25 tonner painted rather whimsically in CP maroon and grey. It has DCC with sound.
Please show me more of your favourite engines!
Dave
I'm just a dude with a bad back having a lot of fun with model trains, and finally building a layout!
De Luxe How many engines pull that special consist?
I use various engines, in this case a pair of Kato P42 GE locomotives https://katousa.com/HO/P42/ are at the head end. A little lubricant (CRC 2-26) on the axle points of the passenger cars' trucks helps immensely.
I love running l o n g passenger trains
Thanks for asking! Ed
@gmpullman: thanks for posting a lighted dome car as I desired. 20 cars is a very long passenger train, so you layout must be huge. How many engines pull that special consist?
Here is a short winter consist of the Yugoslavia Express from Dortmund, Germany to Belgrade, Yugoslavia (via Austria) that shows the train in it´s final look in the winter of 1990/1991 shortly before it was discontinued in summer of 1991. The engine is an EMD built 2063 class diesel locomotive of the Yugoslavian Railways. The passenger cars are also all by Yugoslavian Railways. The consist features a 2nd class sleeper, two 2nd class coaches in different paint schemes, a 1st & 2nd class coach, a 1st class coach and two 1st & 2nd class sleepers in different paint schemes.
Let´s see more international trains outside North America!
BATMANPlease show me a U.S. engine pulling something Canadian, or a Canadian engine pulling something from the U.S.
Well, the engines are twenty cars ahead but here's the ex-Canadian Pacific Tremblant Park bringing up the rear on a special train of private car owners headed for a convention in Washington DC on B&O rails as they pass an Amtrak train headed west.
Private car owners have an annual convention where you can see a fine collection of beautifully restored "Varnish" http://www.aaprco.com/
It makes for a great excuse to run all sorts of various passenger equipment on our layouts.
Let's see more "International" traffic, anywhere around the globe.
Here we have a peekaboo look at some Canadian Pacific coaches being pulled by a borrowed
C&O 2-10-4.
Please show me a U.S. engine pulling something Canadian, or a Canadian engine pulling something from the U.S.
