An Operating Weekend Begins! - Photos Added | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

"HONGZ" stands for HO scale, N scale, G scale, and Z scale.

Post your non-O scale stuff here!

Every two years, our local operating group holds an "invitational" operating weekend, with attendees from other cities that hold similar meets.

I have two sessions scheduled on Friday evening and Saturday afternoon / evening, as well as dispatching another railroad on Sunday morning.

This shot is at Worley ID. Extra NP6014D West (with a consist of four F7s) is ready to depart Worley headed for Cle-Elum WA. One the adjacent A/C track, is Extra NP28 West ( a 2-8-0), which is known as the Noname (No-Nam-E) turn, but he isn't going anywhere until he receives his clearance and train order(s).

Here is the crew call board for the first session. We assign jobs by drawing cards, with the Ace getting the first pick.

All for now.

Regards,

Jerry

Ran a train this afternoon over the railroad to make sure everything was in good working order. It was.

Some shots on Extra NP 5140 West past DeBraal Yard, and through South Spokane.

Going past United Oil Products. Sorry for the blurred photo, shot this from the car going across the overpass. :-)

Under the highway overpass between Acme Box company.

Across the overpass. Shot from the 2nd story of Kiekaefer Coal Company's office. :-)

Past Red Wing Milling.

Hi Art, yes, the railroad is HO. The challenger is made by Sunset Models, the same company as 3rd Rail.
