Hi All,

Sorry, I accidently posted my pics to the Crew Lounge. But Bruce got me straightened out!!

As stated originally, I was a little disappointed in the quality of my photos. I didn't use flash and apparently, the lighting reduced the depth of field considerably, especially at some of the distances that I took the shots.

Hey, great photos, Andy! Interesting to see my car off-line.

Seeing your scenery makes me wonder if my car is going to travel through the four seasons on its journey around the country. It left here at the peak of New York's autumn color and I notice where it went the trees are bare. Will TomPM's layout perhaps be springtime? Sure could use some of that right now!

Hi John,

I think that I forgot to tell who's layout this is. I did in the original post in the Crew Lounge section.

Jack Ozanich has a great New England railroad, the Atlantic Great Eastern that has been around for years and is very popular. See Model Railroader's, 2005 Great Model Railroads for a full story. People come from all over (literally) for invitation only op sessions.

Jack is a retired Grand Trunk Western engineer.

You can see more photos of Jack's layout in my photo albums (see below).

Thanks!

Looking good there, Allen!

I got a package from Andy yesterday. Now given my schedule I hope to open it before the weekend.

The flat car with trucks should be heading out tomorrow, if all goes according to plan.

You know, I never actually noticed that before Allen. It IS pie! Enjoy the typewriters.

Allen,

The 'PIE' car looks pretty good in that train! Nice backdrop.

**Mike_Hamer** · 03-06-2008, 03:36 PM

Hi everyone, It's really a joy following your rolling stock around the US. Lots of fun photos. If I didn't have to worry about the extra cost of shipping across the border I'd love to participate...but this is second best...and it's wonderful! :up: :up:
