After initially posting a contribution to this thread on Friday morning, I came back just now (Saturday morning) and was looking forward to seeing more Erie trains...alas I couldn't find the thread on the main forum, looked all over and finally found this sub-forum - in the basement of OGR so to speak. Its kind of a shame how interesting model RR threads get "moved to the basement" while the main forum is cluttered with a variety of detail-oriented posts. Anyway, I am glad I found this sub-forum where model trains in-action are featured. You guys have great layouts and Erie Power (the latter being a great book BTW).
And, thanks Blueline4 for altering my YouTube to a easier to view format. How is that done, exactly?
Here's a shot of an Erie Berk blasting out of the tunnel in my old Christmas village:
