Took my RS-32 to the club layout and MUed it with my IMRC F3 units.

Rule 1: This is my railroad.
Rule 2: I make the rules.
Rule 3: Illuminating discussion of prototype history, equipment and operating practices is always welcome, but in the event of visitor-perceived anacronisms, detail descrepancies or operating errors, consult RULE 1! |

On the way home from the Fine Scale Model Railroader Expo, Lela and I stopped in at White River Junction. Here are the Green Mountain Railroads version of lots of fun. Alco anyone.
I like the subtle weathering. Kabitzing with the station master he indicated that it was done with airbrush using floquils followed by bragdons mixed with rubbing alcohal. Yes a real alco haul experience

| Those trucks give that C630 a brutish appearance. |
