Forever a Faithful.

While others scheme in castles, ‘Dolgoch’ keeps steaming through the mountains.

A little decal project from a while back honoring the amazing John Allen. Hope to get this and possibly some other G&D cars running at open house this year. Long live the Gorre & Daphetid ❤️

New coach has been started. A 60' labelle 1905 kit with slightly shortened sides because Im turning it into another narrow vestibule car.
Annoyingly, due to the shortening, the windows are now not aligned. Oh well.

Some late night club nonsense.
Seeing if the Q2 can get around the tightest (flat) curve on the layout with @prrshepherd.bsky.social and @dagg3r-actual1-1.bsky.social

One of the most beautiful 4-8-2 designs is also one of the last, the Rutland's L-1 class of 1946. ALCO really knocked it out of the park.

I know we didn't ""place"", but, like, honorable mention in a national model railroad contest is still pretty sweet!

My father (right) and myself (left) pose behind a small 1x2 foot diorama recreation of a scene from Buster Keaton's movie "The General". The scene is a little hard to make out due to its small size in the image, but it includes a steam train on a wooden bridge in the middle of breaking under the weight of the train.

Oh wow, I really don't know diesel engines or anything modern because I thought these were the same as the engines Metra had when I used to take Metra:

Looks like the MBTA is joining in on the Heritage Unit fun! Boston and Maine scheme looks sharp on a F40PH.

From the linked article, it sounds like there'll also be a New Haven unit and New York Central unit (Boston & Albany?) in the near future too.

Just noticed how INSANE the air-horn setup on the nose of this FRISCO 4-8-2 is. Note the curved front bells(!!). What on earth did this early 4 chime sound like?!

The milk car now has vents and more detailed doors.
Still need to add ice hatches to the corners.

I always dreamed of going over this little bridge in Larkspur/ Corte Madera every time we'd drive north and dodge the wooden pilings on the most hair-raising part of Sir Francis Drake Blvd.

Glad that the steel portion of the bridge remains, even if the approaches are gone.
