Here's a picture of my fairly new car float scene with a Pennsylvania switcher pushing the last of a string of grain cars onto the barge for their trip across the bay. Now that I'm out of the hospital I hope to soon feel up to adding details to this scene based on some excellent comments by other members and, most recently, an article in the November issue of TRAINS that profiles a still operating car float in the Chesapeake Bay! It has excellent pictures and a good description of what its like to float a train.
