    Jeff, is the Bartle tank still "standing?" It was listing to the south big time when we were last there for 25's finale. The track was removed from Bartle on at that point in time. Truly sad, such a photogenic route. :tb-sad:

    Yes, Bartle tank is still standing. I don't know how much longer it can remain upright, though. Bartle still had a foot or so of snow on the ground, and I didn't have time to walk in from the crossing.

    It always strikes me how quickly a scene can change. I wish this country would get their collective heads together and realize how important rail movement is and will be in the future...

    Sorry to say it Jeff, but welcome to being a fallen flag fan. :(
