Weekly Photo Fun 4-20-2018 to 4-26-2018 - Charlie B - 04-20-2018

Continuing with my efforts to honor other forum members with cars on my layout. I am also learning more about printing my own decals and applying them.

Very impressive Charlie---are you thinking of starting a second career in the decal production field ?

Back in Leetown the senior hoggers have mixed feelings about the latest arrival at the James St. terminal as they can see the writing on the wall regarding the future of their beloved steam locomotives

A busy Sunday for the shop crew. A second Genset pair must be ready for an early Monday job due to a faulty GP15-1.
One engine got a Tsunami 2 replacing the old DCC decoder today and the other got a 100 Ohm / 2 Watt resistor wired in place of the motor.

Rapido Trains Inc. has quickly become my favourite manufacturer of outstanding HO scale models.Here's a sampling of CNR first generation diesels---GMD1 #1040 and SW1200RS #1329

Conrail usually does not run thru this section of Whiskey Point on Sundays. Taking advantage of a great spring day the Chevy members of the South Jersey Cruisers got together for a run.

The hogger on CNR Mike #3377 uses all his experience and skills as he has closed the throttle and uses the engine's independent brake as he eases his steed down the Stoney Creek Hill.This is the steepest grade on the Leetown Division and you can see why helpers are needed to assist upbound freights tackle this section of trackage.The local rail-fanners regularly gather at this site to catch double-headed locomotives on the lead with pushers on the rear of the train
