    Nicely done! I like to try to imagine what an operator would need to know to operate the panel. I have a not quite that complex panel on my layout and I regularly commit operational errors that would get me fired if I were doing it for real.

    Last Friday at Catawba, SC, a westbound. This is the former SAL main between Hamlet, NC and Atlanta, GA where the Silver Comet once ran. The line above is an NS branch.

    This remains one of my favorite features of Trainboard. I really enjoy seeing where everyone has been and what's been captured. (y)

    I agree. Sort of railfanning from a distance.

    What the bleep happened to my post? Some kind of conspiracy? Men in black? FEMA? MJ12? :cautious:

    Well, here it is again, the former contents of Wellington Tower, preserved at Exporail, the Canadian Railway Museum:


    And Yoho, I'll put up with you so long as you pay the beer.:D

    Mike-

    You should have received a system automated notification, plus at least one if not two PMs. The image you are linking is somehow also dragging in some suggestive female pictures. It happens when the thumbnail is clicked, and then that page is scrolled down. We have received a couple of complaints, and it is confirmed by several Staff members.

    Indeed, I just ran into that message. I checked the link and scrolled down. There were a few ads down there, but nothing that I would consider racy. Three gambling ads and one for steroids.

    Just in case my previous post goes kerflooey for the same reasons (they might change the ads...) here it is yet again:


    Wellington Tower contents, at Exporail.

    They might have it set up to rotate images. I should have made a screen grab, but my wife was hollering that dinner was getting cold....

    Checked again, and still see it. Screen captured and posted to the Staff forum.

    It must be something new at the image host that was introduced without notice. I did check the "family safe" content option, but that doesn't seem to apply to their ads.

    In any case, I've declared them sita non grata.

    I saw this set of three SD60's bracketed by a couple of GE's last Sep, 2015, and wondered if the Oakways of the BN ended up CIT? And you just gotta love the professionallly done "bandit" paint on the NREX !!!!! PIC_0793.JPG PIC_0792.JPG PIC_0791.JPG PIC_0790.JPG

    Caught th is guy a couple of hours ago as I headed east to check on a customers house. A power move of 5 units and a short freight. It's just crossing Glendive creek. PIC_0858.JPG
    And this one was yesterday, as I got 'lucky' again seeing the power heading for it's parked train. Had time to watch it and vid/photo it. PIC_0851.JPG
    Hope y'all had a Happy Easter!!!
