OK, I now have a fancy camera that allows HD. Yes, I need to learn the focus in close up mode, but the sound is good :-)

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! |

Kinda looks like the F3's had a breakdown and they needed an Alco to come out to get them to their destination.

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.
