I am wondering if we should change to a Monthly photo fun due to lack of participation. 

Circa 1966, PRR coal Train

Charlie something to think about regarding weekly versus monthly.

Nice shot of PRR power.

Here are the troublesome Western Maryland SD40's (Athearn RTR) passing the Water Tower.

Tom, I assume those great looking WM units are now cooperating in DCC?  If so, what was the magic trick?

Charlie, I think the once-a-month is a great idea.  Some weeks I just miss out on the entries.

For those who dream of a treehouse in the back yard to get away from it all...

Yes they are. The answer was adding a 5 amp booster. There is still a problem with 7447 and a couple of switch frogs.

Nice treehouse.

Charlie - that is a great scene. How was it accomplished?

Aha!  Glad you found an answer.  I got a sweet deal on an 8-amp a few years ago and I've never had to worry about enough power.  Switches can be a menace that keeps on giving.

No one has opted to start a new thread so I will continue with this one. 
Another Intermountain Heritage unit. These are some of the most accursedly detailed locomotive I have found.

Not to mention some very nice paint schemes.

That’s beautiful, Charlie

I am going to renumber this one to 1700 to fit the NS number of the prototype that is still in service.

I always have to look twice at these to see if they are Erie-Lackawanna or North Shore
