Weekend Photo Fun 2-24-17-??

You've got to love a kid who picks the Chessie System as his favorite RR.

It's been a busy week in Plasticville.

Transferring freight from my Valley Railway, across the aisle, to his Sassafras Creek Railroad.

No post is complete without a bit of Chessie.

Here is updated picture's of my K-line Clinchfield Die-cast 2 Bay Hopper With Coal.I put new lionel trucks on. The other trucks was croded up pretty bad.   

Great Pictures.

here is my contribution.

Have a nice Weekend!

Not much doing this week....busy at work.....here is an old favorite. One of my favorite liveries...New York Central....Jade Green, with the cigar band.

This was taken in May, 1984 while traveling from Philly to Buffalo. I stopped in Rochester to get some fast food and saw this small freight yard across the street.

TGIF! 70 degrees today so be sure to get outside and enjoy the weather if you can! 

Golden Gate Depot El Cap cars shipped this week.  I got the original run in Santa Fe and the 2nd run in Amtrak. I haven't had time to get all the cars out yet so please forgive my poor cell phone photos.

Happy Friday!

Made a lot of progress on that back corner last weekend! Nice to take some pics & have actual scenery
Started working on the road into town & the passenger platform area as well. This week, I plan to get the rest of the hillside finished along the back & do some ballasting

























Early postwar looks very realistic if placed in the right setting -









NS ES44DC 7544 leads 213 westbound through Wernersville, PA on the Reading line


The Conrail heritage unit sits outside the engine shop in Bluefield yard


NS SD70M 2588 (1 of only 10 non flared radiator SD70Ms on NS) leads an eastbound manifest through Shawsville, VA on the Christiansburg District


NS 188 heads eastbound at Coopers, WV with Dash-9 9417 leading & the Interstate heritage unit trailing




N&W 611 heads northbound through Jamestown, NC on the Piedmont Mainline


A shot you can no longer get now - NS 12G ducks under the not long for this world PRR signal bridge at CP PORT w/ Dash-9 9393 leading

Trim looks great!  One thing I would do though.  Put some bumpers on the dead end spurs that end and drop off!! That scares me just looking at it!    I would surely run something off of it lol
