That's a tough act to follow.  
The T1 is grabbing a tender full of coal and water while the B6 is waiting to do some flat switching in the yard.      Charlie

Bruce - that is quite a collection of locos in the yard. ALCO's and EMD's if I am not mistaken.

Charlie - Sweet looking locos. The T-1 is impressive. What is the loco on the left? I can't make out the wheel configuration.

Deano - Cool and unusual loco. I have one Fairbanks-Morris loco but it is still in the box. I just read an article on the Trainmasters on the Reading. They were some kind of brutes handling 105 car trains by themselves.

I will say it is hard to compete this week. For a quick shot I have my IHC 4-6-2 Pacifics. They are cousins of a sort; Baltimore & Ohio and Chessie System

I finally managed to catch a look at the Grand River Southern's transfer locomotive in Mount Forest this morning...

   

Apparently, she's not the hauler that she was hoped to be, and is supposedly in Mount Forest for modifications, although there are also whispers that she'll be sold.

Bruce, you're very adept at creating realistic-looking scenes, and I always enjoy seeing them.
