    Yeah, quite a variety, and thanks to the photographers and to you, Buddy. Thanks also for picking another of mine. I just can't seem to stay away from that cute little 2-6-2 from McCloud.

    Great to see more photos, maybe the cooler weather is allowing some railfaning? Thanks for picking one of mine Buddy.

    Chris, I took those in Boonville Indiana. They are from the Squaw Creek Southern Railroad. The story as to why I was down that way and how I got access to the yard will come shortly.
