The conductor holds back the Southern Passenger train at Noma Station while the Marine Corp marching band plays " In MY Merry Oldsmobile" for the      Minature Antique Car Club's annual parade.

Look who's in the pace car!

For those Too young, here's;  In My Merry Oldsmobile,  I think it came out around 1905.

Some railfanning from my recent trip to Philadelphia........my son got married.....

.....with grand dog Rufus railfanning in the dog park of his high rise along the Schuykyll River.....the old B&O line from Baltimore to Philly, which in Philly goes up the east side of the river.....

.....without the train in the way, looking across the river at 30th Street Station and the Northeast Corridor.....

I always tell Rufus that he is a lucky dog to have such a great railfanning site!

.....on one of the may walks Rufus and I took......I always take in these sites.....

Suburban Station, whose marquee lights still illuminate the plaza at night nearly 60 years after the Pennsylvania RR transitioned into the PennCentral....

....and, Reading Terminal, whose market still serves great food and is always a destination for me.....

Have a great and safe weekend, folks!

SIRT, great work as usual.  Is that circus train on the siding in Uniondale? Also what do you use as the backing for your pallet loads?

Stang, I always wanted one of those Schnabels but having a radially challenged layout I could never bring myself to shell out $150 for are car that would have such limited track to run on.  Eventually I got lucky on eBay and found one for <$60, without the transformer.  With all those trucks it tracks well and has less overhang than a RK center I Beam flat car.  One of these days I've got fabricate a transformer, shorter than the MTH one but still massive enough to need the Schnabel.

Congrats to Chris and Peter.  Peter you clean up real nice.  The hospital should have kept you on just to attend fund raisers.  You would have fit right in.

Patrick  Every one of your posts is just so interesting.

I have been on the fence with buying a MTH Budd RDC set for a long time. Finally, I saw a used Susquehanna set with Protosounds 3 at a good price, I couldn’t resist and pulled the trigger.

Nice set, very happy,
