Hello again!

Another year and some more layouts to look at I hope!  

Tuesday morning November 5, 2019.

Bags are packed so the hurry up has turned to wait.  Amtrack’s Vermonter will transport me to Philadelphia where I will spend the night.

Hi All,

I’m at it again this year.  No more shoveling snow (and hopefully very little coal.)

Since winter is coming again Sue and I are getting ready to travel from New England to where the snow isn’t supposed to fall, very often.....

Hello All,

On the road for a couple of days and had a few miscellaneous thoughts I'd like to put out.

First is a log load on a flat car that I've had on the railroad for a while.

Hi,

I've just started a project to make 52 (+3 for me) three bay covered hoppers.  ARI makes the full size car that I wanted to model exactly (the T4250) but there is no model of the car.  I've compromised by using an Intermountain Railway ACF 4650 covered hopper in kit form, gray styrene.  My thought is to do a blog of the start to finish of these cars.
