    One BLTN coming up!!!

    Any idea what scale it is?
    Rode behind a 7 1/2 scale UP 4-8-4 several years ago.
    During a live steam club open house in Waterton Canyon/Denver Water Board land, before having to move to new and larger facility.

    My folks would have more than one coniption if I
    said I was gonna do that!! Then, we'd have EVERY
    kid in the surrounding area over to "play". Also betting
    the neighbors wouldn't be too pleased either. Or the City!
    I'd love it tough!

    Scott,
    First look at your shot I figured you'd be the winner "hands-down." In the midwest there is now way to match that shot!! But for some reason people vote for all different kids or reasons, hence the 3-way chase.

    This is one of the best things about TB!!! L

    And the simple single curve shot by CB&Q Fan... love it! These were a great range of shots, my second choice was Lou's CSX reverse curves.
