On Mullan Pass, MRL's finest attacks the mountain, including SD45's! Here's a Laurel-Spokane MRL manifest led by pure SD45's near Avon, MT:

A few weeks ago I had the Atlas Coal Drag, now I have the rest of hoppers. Since 90% are Athearn I call this the Athearn & More Coal Drag. I hope no one minds a roll-by. P2K Reading FA1 and FB1 Athearn Reading 5-pack
Just sneaking this in , hopefully y'all lookin at the Monday thread 2 GE 44 tonners, the gray one is a runner the black one has a chassis not no engine as yet (its in bits - well ya have to do that to stretch the mech ). And the other wee thing is one of Randy's Class A Climax kits nearly done.
Nice roll-by Tom! Hey whatever happened with the grain elevator diorama you were building? Can you do a grain train roll-by?
I was looking for this photo all weekend. Perhaps the first view of Westover (aka Summit). I uploaded it to the wrong album!
Thanks! The grain elevator diorama is now part of the layout. I need to do some scenery around it to tie into the layout. Right now it is an oasis in a pink desert. I guess I could take some shots around it. The track is not set-up for run-bys as it is a service track for the elevator.
I've made a picture to represent the article by Bill Baumann in Model Railroader Nov. 85. This article was the key for my Third Street Industrial District and so the start to my intensive American style model railroading. Wolfgang
Are you going to do any up in the Black Widow inspired scheme? I can't imagine theses beasts trying to navigate the Russian River trackage!
nice shot Wolfgang!!! I have to say that article turned my focus to urban settings for my layout planning (and eventual construction)
