Bruce - Nice shot. The little person really adds to the scene
Ed - Great photo. What type of loco is that? Trainmaster?
Deano - I really like the patched units.
Here is the first run by on the new under construction layout. I have installed the Water Tower Diorama in a temporary location so I can run photograph trains.
Broadway Limited PRR T-1
PRR Walthers ACF 70 FT Heavyweight Baggage Car
Bachmann Spectrum PRR Coach

The spot where the diorama is placed isn’t the best spot. It is the best spot that works. I have to work on getting the placed better.

Tom---I'm becoming a big fan of the BLI steam locomotives.
Here's some information regarding #2900 for Deano and Tom:
3000 CN's one and only CLC/Fairbanks-Morse H24-66 Train Master. FM/CLC 7/1955 Canadian National
This powerful unit was ahead of its time. At 2400 hp it could out pull anything! First used in Winnipeg it was later used in Toronto (Hamilton) and Montreal commuter service (it was built with a steam generator) it was equipped 4/1964 for hump service in Toronto and 9/1964 Montreal as its best use was searched for. Renumbered to 2900 it was retired 2/1966.

Looking at Tom's runby, I was wondering: why do they write Diner on the outside of the coach? If you need to know that, you are probably inside the train already.
Or is that for the train staff in the yard making up the train?
