For those who are not aware, the California Zephyr is arriving at the WP station in Oakland.  Yep, they loaded and unloaded right in the street at the beginning and end of the transcontinental trip of the Zephyr.  It must have been a surprise for the passengers who boarded at the fancy Chicago Union Station!

        Tom, thanks for the info, did not know that, be a neat layout scene...

Took this on the way home yesterday

Howard Park Station coming to life.....

Wow, Gandydancer, that is very sharp. The whole ensemble has a consistent, realistic atmosphere to it. I really like it. It is delightful and a treasure any hobbyists would enjoy having on a layout, I am sure.

UP 1925 rounds the corner as Buzz and R2D2 decide on who's running the SD70. Buzz won, he had scissors over R2s paper. 

A follow up with my last pics. Buzz smiling,  R2 not so much.
