[Steve B]

let's have your best shot's of the week everyone

What i would love to see is some winter shot's, plenty of snow and sunshine

 

[OldGettysk]

Yeah Steve can't wait for more snow !!!!!

 

[Steve B]

No snow here (Yet) but it was cold enough, this is Preston station with 6201 under the canopy shortley after uncoupling from it's train to allow the diesel to take over the final leg

and me and the boy's next to one of the Pullman cars

RJR weeks events

This week I finished a rake of tankers i started a while ago and got a chance to run them early thursday morning behind my pair of small diesels.

And if you want to see them running they are here on my Yahoo Video Gallery

And finally I played with a few previous videos to create a compilation movie complete with a backing track here

OK, many of you saw a preview of these pictures in my friend Eric's thread on his kodachromes, but anyway...

The following pictures are of my modern-day New York Central System hauling the Tropicana Juice train at the recent train show in Denver:

There was a masking aid in MR a while back, it was in the projects section i think and it was the same as this but for about 20 axles

MRTPLS Everytime i see the tropicana juice train hauled by those NYC diesels my jaw drops, it look's fantastic, what a work of art

Been working on getting the train room cleaned and the layout operating for the family who will be coming for for Thanksgiving. My son and his partner from Chicago will be here all week. I haven't seen them since my Mothers funeral a year and a half ago so I am looking forward to it. I also will have to do some Major[/b[ cleaning of the house by Monday night......

I did find some time to set up a short photo op tonight.

The old Mogul #38 has brought a couple of reefers filled with the first of the local apple crop to the Ice House to be iced before they are dropped off at the interchange on their way to the big city.

 

[JeffShultz]

That juice train sure has a ton of horsepower on the front end!

I bought a couple of Cat B25 heavy duty forklifts this week (after a long search that I finally involved the Atlas RR forum denizens in), so I decided it was time to work up a "scene" for them at the industry I bought them for on my layout:

 

[NWR #200]

Oooooo, are those Norscot forklifts? I could use a couple...

 

[Steve B]

Great shot's Ray and Jeff
