I'm envious of the weathering on your cars. Wish I had the expertise to do likewise to my engines and rolling stock. Great photos of superb scenes. I enjoyed viewing this.

Sirt, Wow!

Great pics, everyone!

Steve P and Chris E, Great photo's as usual.

Sirt,

This was totally my train fix for today. I have only seen your one car seen pics in the forum and always wondered what the rest of layout looked like. This is pure 3 rail awesomeness. Thanks for posting and please post more often.

On Tuesday got to visit Steamtown in Scranton, PA its great and also like a RR graveyard! Got some ideas for some new flatcars. And it was another great York and great to see and visit with many of you!
