    Figured out Black and White

    Hey, just found the switch to gray scale on my photo editor. Here is the C & S #1 with a work train leaving the Como yard, and a shot of the DSPPRR # 3 on the Como turntable.

    Tom,
    I like your grainers. Nice looking train. Just curious about the different syles of cars, what sort of build dates do they have?

    Possibly Late

    Possibly late this weekend for posting. A Texas and Mexican Railway GP7 has arrived to take a portion of the Grain Train to Victoria, Texas for processing. Missouri Pacific brings the Grain Train from Dallas to San Antonio, so TexMex has to switch the MoPac caboose and replace it with their own TexMex caboose before departing for Victoria. All in a days work on the railroad. :happy19pb: Colonel custom painted the MoPac caboose so it has a few more miles (kilometers) than normal. :thumbs_up:

    flash,

    Love the Tex Mex loco, it's kinda funny that you operated that loco on my layout a few years ago and there it is with a caboose that also originated from my layout :D
