Oooh, Bruce’s #4 was hauling the Sutro Pneumo Loco! 
It warms my heart that you tarted it up, Jon… well, at least rusted it and made it a load. I worked a bunch on that model and print, but I’ve yet to do squat with mine!

From the recent club modular event at MCCormick Stillman Railroad Park in Scottsdale, spent 6 hours OPERATING trains, had a good day until something made my 53’ evans car and my new AML hopper take a dove to the ground, only thing that broke was a CamPac coupler mount. Could have been much worse

Road trial still pending, but this is my quick & dirty leaf blower car using a serious 24V equipment blower. It’s strong enough to propel the car on the indoor.
I have a bunch of these blowers with power leads for sale on Marketplace for $5 each. They came out of a flatbed solvent printer we scrapped at work years ago.

Mark I was a minor success, but lacked power when a big pile collected in front, so I present Mark II…
Road trials tomorrow maybe.

Mark II was an improvement, but the stream is too high. Needs a complete redesign for next fall. The leaves are all but done here now, so it works great for the stragglers…
Wednesday was a nice fall day and reasonably warm. Today we finally have much needed rain, so I wanted to get some trains out while it was still dry. There is a chance of light snow tomorrow morning - maybe some early winter shots!
It got pretty busy at the junction. The passenger train is holding on a siding and M-10 and M-11 hold on the West leg of the wye as a double headed mixed train clears the junction…
John Radder, the Cobra I got from you new has a new owner and she loves it!
My lifelong friend Jeff Leisle owns a auto electric business , so I had to make this into his shop. The 2 story yellow house in background is a metal candle holder the wife found at Hobby Lobby, I repainted it
When I was trucking , my largest customer was Abrasives and Equipment a sand blasting seller, he only sold to public but I like that I grew his business to a whole plant that stores and sells it, actually need to build a warehouse for it too!
Some views around the layout, I made the Cattle loading chute based off one we had growing up, and of course from the MIK a few year ago , the “Hippie” Quonset Hut
