Spring is in the Air (Live Steam)

After getting almost a foot of snow on Friday, Saturday brought spring like weather. Temps in the mid 50’s it felt like spring for those of us up north. Its amazing how fast sow will melt with a March sun.

Haha it seems everytime I take a video a loud car or plane will go by, in this case a helicopter lol. Cant win.

Ralph the only time I use electric is when doing maint. on the line or I just want to sit and watch the train go by. I doubt I will ever buy an electric train again.

Nice video Shawn. Like to see more of the cricket. Regards,Ron

What a beautiful scene that is, Shawn! A little live-steamer working in the snowy landscape. Your track, and that of Eric Schade, are among my all-time favourites.

Thanks Tom. I thought Spring was in the air. Since then we got 2 inches of snow a few days ago. Woke up today to another 6 inches ugh. Spring is never going to get here.
