Nice photos everyone, thank you all for sharing!

On my way home from the grocery store this morning, I drove home past the RR tracks as usual.  When I saw three or four guys with cameras walking along the road, I knew something was up.  An Alphabet route (W&LE, AVR, B&P) loaded coke train was running westbound on the AVR/B&P passing Bakerstown, PA.  I missed getting a photo of the head end power (2 AVRs and a Wheeling unit), but here's a shot of the helpers on the rear.

Last weekend, I was running trains and testing signals.  Here's a CR consist passing the soon-to-be west end of the yard.

My granddaughter Lorrie Frances demonstrates the lessons she has mastered at the Gonzales Institute of Train Training. During a visiit to the Memphis Childrens Museum Lorrie Frances was able to recall the Santa Fe F3   lessons her Grandaddy taught her. She picked out the Santa Fe F3 ridding toy on her own!!

Have a good week, and if you live in the Mid South let’s hope it’s  dry one!

Jeff (Centeral Terminal Jeff on forum) and I finished the city level (3rd Level) of layout today. Who knew that you could spend two days cutting plywood and screwing it down.

A lot of contours on edges to make transitions between 2nd & 3rd levels more interesting.

Now I have somewhere to put all the kits I have been building.

Here are a few shots from today

Been wondering where all those marvelous buildings and fronts you've been posting find their home. From what I see this is a premier layout. Where can we see more?
