"Show me two freights meeting." Not easy, tons of freights and passenger train passing shots, but only one of a freight train meeting.

NYC #8038 meets NYC #3083 as they pass near the Grafton Tower on the Black River Valley layout.

More meeting shots please.

More people please.

Here's the famous Ferdinand Magellan private car U.S. No. 1 (pre Air Force One) during Mr. Churchill's summer, 1943, visit to Hyde Park.

That's Clementine, waving; Mr. Churchill in top hat; the Porter then Eleanor seated next to President Roosevelt who seems more interested in the scenery.

Shall we continue with more little people?

"Quiz - why red over red on the right and 2 red over yellow on the left"

Signal on right displays Stop Signal.

Signal on left displays Restricting.

It might normally display a more favorable aspect (as this is a crossover move on the main), but because there is a train occupying the block ahead, Restricting is the most favorable aspect that the interlocking machine can display under the circumstances. The interlocking is lined and the track within the interlocking limits is clear, but the block ahead is occupied. Hence, "Restricting". (proceed prepared to stop within 1/2 of the range of vision, short of train, obstruction or switch improperly lined, not exceeding 15mph within interlocking limits and 20mph outside of interlocking limits)  (or somewhere thereabouts, they kept changing the wording of the rule throughout the years)

Good one Wayne!  You'd think someone would be giving "Big Bad John" a hand, instead of all clustered around the business end of that machine, and in the way! Laugh
