That car is really sort of nondecript except for the lettering Chief.

It past 3 PM and I have no chores done & I promised to tke up my HO stuff in the front room and clean it, the room I mean.

I need coffee.

Spanky very nice scene with the old station and General. Dont the people look realistic?

I have spent the afternoon working on an engine that doesnt want to be repaired.

My eyse sight and hands are no up to the task anymore. Nor to typing.

Have a nice evening you all.

Tom,

Great scene with that wonderful loco & station!!! Although I pretend to be a "prototypical" modeler, I'm a sucker for "toy" (aren't they all??) trains, so much so, I bought my newly born grandson an ol' time Marx!!!

Gil,

Don't give up 'cause eyes/hands aren't what they used to be...Happens to us all.

Good evening to all!!

Gus (LC&P).

Let me say in my own defense I was trying to repair an HO steamer, two in fact.

I think I could get the screws back ok in O ga.

Nice caboose in your vivatar.
