Luv it, Mayor Magoo, plenty to look at, with the eye darting in every direction, and back again. Very nice!

LOL!  Thanks for the kind words Frank, but I was looking at the picture myself and noticed something I hadn't until now.  I put tunnel liners in both portals, you can see the one on right looks dark but then I saw in the picture how in the left tunnel I didn't extend the liner far enough - you can see the wall behind it.

Well, Dave, if thems the "good steps", the bad steps must be a real trip

That's close to home....I ride through there on each trip to SoCal via Amtrak! 

Anyone know when 765 was there??

I've often wondered if real-life trains everpassed so closely to the fronts of buildings, like this, as some of us seem forced to do by space constraints on our layouts; so now, Thanks to you, Briansilvermustang, I have my answer (!)

Another photo close to home!!! I was in Elkins the other day....hope to ride more next summer!!!
