Woodie- Here's the only site I could think of right off hand. The downloads are fairly short, but they might work out. http://www.mtnwestrail.com/movies.htm

Very nice Gary! The first photo is my favorite. The shadows and a gleam from the headlight really make the picture seem alive. Is that an oil-burner? I ask because most steamers out west with elephant ears were oil-powered. The coal burners were a little too sooty for passenger use after...

I suppose that the hospital is a good place for those scissors, but be sure to wash them off first! :p

Pete, I think you just begun to scratch the surface on that one. If you get an itching to, post more ideas. Hope nothing's bugging you. :rolleyes: OK, now that I've made sure that joke's good and dead.. You could "condemn" the house with the windows boarded up or in the process of...

An experience that anyone is lucky to walk away from.

Should've hit the brakes a little sooner.

DRGW - The INaction road

Here's a new method that someone came up with for unloading containers as fast as possible.

While we're on the subjects of wrecks, I'll post a few photos that I found while perusing the web. I didn't take any of them, but they're still interesting. --- Looks like the engineer was trying to take the curve with a power slide.

Walthers has some. Try these links to see if the figures work for you. http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/590-79120 http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/590-79121 http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/447-52174

I think that Alco found that the Aqua-train was a little too heavy to make money. It could only carry one passenger and even then, sitting on the tender is not my idea of riding in style. OK, it'd be more fun than should be legal, but you'd better have a set of clean clothes to change into...

I don't think so either. That loco's been sitting there since before you built the crane and it's still in one piece! You need to hire some new workers there, Charlie! The guys you have now aren't worth a plugged 1:160 nickel!

My dad bought a toy store HO set when I was about 5 (Tyco Silver Streak) and we(he) built a small layout on a piece of plywood. That lasted a couple of years and then faded away. Still have that locomotive though. About 10 years later we tried building another layout that didn't go so...

Sure look like an F45. Mike, I've always been partial to the ATSF F45s, but in a slightly different scheme.

Well, since it seems that everyone's posted a doctored photo but me, it's time to fix that. Just your basic nighttime shot, although the stars seem a little different tonight.

Actually, Tyson took a page from the M.C. Escher art book. The locomotive is behind the boats, but it's in front of the masts! Confusing? :confused: You bet! Especially if you have no idea who Escher is!:)

Re: JPG photos Woodie, I had to laugh when reading your reply. Pics on you pooter sounds like you had a graphic tattooed on your derriere. I can just picture a guys dropping his pants in public and telling everyone "Take a look at my F7!" :D

Two options come to mind: 1. "OK everbody, 1.. 2.. 3.. HEAVE!! 1.. 2.. 3.. HEAVE!!" 2. "Bob, c'mere. It's your turn to blow into the pipe."
