    Oh, yeah. The locomotive still running and available for starring in movies as well as pulling tourist trains. Got to ride behind it.

    The old wooden shorty cars were in the shop undergoing restoration when I was there in 2015.

    Not enough color and the wrong ones. The Rogers was a wood burner and the coach was a combination passenger/mail 38 footer.

    Same loco, just in a different "costume" for that roll. In one of the shops they had a display showing all off the smoke stacks it has worn for different movies. They had two for Back to the Future III, one in tact and one blown up.

    For the car, it was probably there, I just did not get a photo of it.

    It should be noted that #3 never did burn wood. It started life coal fired, but was converted to burn oil at some time in the distant past. The wood load was stacked so as to hide the oil tank. The short passenger cars, both coach and combine, were originally used on Sierra's Angels branch and have also appeared in movies and TV many times. Russell is also spot on about the "costumes" worn by #3. One of the things I really enjoy about old movies and TV shows is getting to see what #3 is wearing for each one. One series I had forgotten about and recently rediscovered was "Iron Horse", which I really enjoyed as a kid. Petticoat Junction was fun, but Iron Horse was cool. It had everything including lots of action, fights and a prominent role for #3. Glorious!

    BTW, Candy, love the new avatar photo.

    Candy, thanks for bringing some extra enjoyments to the discussion.

    Railmix, Thanks for the update. I was referring to the Hooterville Express in particular and the westerns I've seen it in. I didn't see Petticoat Junction until it was in reruns. The Judge that controlled TV and movies in Green Bay disapproved of it as well as Star Trek. So I had to move to Milwaukee after the army in '72.

    Or Hootersville as it was referred to by Mrs. Douglas in the Green Acres spinoff.

    Folks- We seem to have spun a wee bit off the original topic, such as discussing undergarments here. We need to please swing back toward the original topic.

    Thank you. (y)

    I've been naughty:( Sorry. Back to work

    My friend, Larry, drew up a, to scale, drawing of the bridge in my picture. I looked through my wood collection and found what I need. So, I started building.
