Morning!
Today will be a day of great change as a cold front moves in from the arctic. This is probably the last day of balmy warm for awhile. It's still 24°F this morning. That's on the way out, though. By Sunday, we will be 30° cooler. - That is going to be very noticeable for a few days, until the blood makes the adjustment.
Mel will have to make sure he's stocked up on the hot chocolate.
Kleiner - I also wanted to mention a thumbs-up about the great looking layout space. Should be able to put something nice in there!
Ray - I can hear the trains coming just fine. It's the sneaky CN cop that I have trouble hearing. He's the one and only person I've met, that dosen't like me taking photos down there.
Phil - Are you OK?! I noticed you never tuned in to the shop yesterday. Get well, stay safe!
Karl - That janitor needs a good spanking. Hope you're wife is ok.
Willie - I'm happy you find my photos good enough to save some - it's a fine compliment knowing the photos are useful to others. Nice sunrise!
Today, I'll show photos of a boxcar parked in the local yard yesterday. The reporting mark LW confused me, so I looked it up:
Reprinted from The Right Way Magazine, Vol. 51, No. 5
'This railroad was first incorporated in August 1872 as the Louisville Branch Railroad Company. The name was changed to the Louisville and Wadley Railroad Company Aug. 14, 1879. Ten miles in length, the road was constructed in 1879 connecting the two towns of Louisville and Wadley, Ga.
This railroad was bought by Central Dec. 7, 1898, and was sold by Central to a group of citizens on Sept. 18, 1961. The line is now known as the Louisville and Wadley Railway Company.'
This car is a long way from home. I like the green color of this car, less the crappy artwork:
See ya tomorrow!

Joe - When I get feeling like that, I head for a long bush walk in the forest. Does miracles for personal wellness. No need to get close to anyone when you are in the bush. - Hope your son is ok!Guess I need to change directions, and do something outside the house, but what, without exposing myself to the virus?
