I found this photo of Hamilton's CNR Stuart St. roundhouse taken in 1962.This was my Father's workplace when he worked on the railroad and as a child I often visited when my Dad would take us down to the yard to ride on the locomotives.When this picture was taken steam engines were gone except for a few excursion locomotives so the roundhouse's days were numbered and it was demolished in the 80's

Great shots this week guys!
The Steam guys over at the Rock Valley Railway Museum took the old EG-E 501 F-E-F out with a few restored 40'ers for some run by shots ......
FYI Wayne, I oiled this engine up today, still runs!...not a "great" runner, but still she ran around the layout about 20 times without stalling or derailing(at a moderate speed) .

I got tired of looking at the bear mountains behind my engine terminal, so I also spent the better part of last summer making ground foam, to use on trees for the offending hillsides. In those box tops there are about 500 puff ball trees. I need about 150 more to complete this project, and another set of hills near Sailors Junction.
