Awesome shot!

Mike

Thanks! :wave:



iannz above are xtof's cars (front), some of pencil42's cars (middle), and some of my repaints of pencil42's cars (back). Most of the period cars are narrow gauge, these are the only standard gauge link n' pin cars I've found. It may be possible to mount the narrow gauge stuff on standard gauge trucks, I haven't messed with that... yet.

Pretty sure O&W never used C&O stuff as they had their own style of bathtub gon but Adam's hopper's are way too good not to use here.
Cheers Mick.

Nice shots, speaking of Harriman Consolidations, has anyone heard anything about 618's overhaul and conversion to oil firing. That means that now if that is still going through there will be no operating coal fired UP road engines (618, 844, 3985, 4014) and apparently if restored some people want 4466 to be converted to oil, because it's easier to use, though others still want it coal (some of which did work on her footplate as a coal burner.)

CN SD75I 5734 leads CN 5867 on a rock train through Windsor on my WIP route


W&S (Windsor & Southern) is a shortline that paralells the CN For a few miles through Windsor, and run down East Depot St. for some street-running. Here we see the daliy westbound led by Ex-MQJR S-12 #20 and Ex-SOU F7 #4257 from a drone.

Making her way across the US, 90250 still trails the Empire Builder. Next stop, Beech Grove for conversion into a Phase V NPCU...
