Large Scale Central

Sunday operations

The weather was a bit nicer Sunday afternoon, it wasn’t too hot, so Martha and I ran a train. I flipped switches and uncoupled cars, and she had the controller and figured out what to do.

We switched out two cars off the car float at Williamsport, and then headed to Pearce, where we had to trade two tank cars at Goodson’s, and a gon for a hopper at Salmons Sand and Gravel.

Eventually got that sorted, and headed downhill.

No work at Majestic, but dropped a hopper at the new mine.

That sorted, it was around the loops to Dead Rooster Gulch to switch out a boxcar of equipment for the mine.

A fun way to spend a couple hours.

Interesting layout. I like the different types of bridges and scenes.

Good to see you have a few minutes to get away from the site and play trains.(https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif)(https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)

Really miss being there this year. Totally understand, but still miss it. New structure at the mine?

I guess this qualifies as a virtual visit.(http://largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)

Yup, me too.

Railroad and Engineer Martha are looking great, as always. Thanks for taking the time to take the pictures and post.

Really missed being back there for our usual 2 weeks also… Even if it wasn’t

for Covid-19, I still wouldn’t have been able to make it his year anyway…

Health just wouldn’t have allowed it…

Appreciate the pictures… Railroad looks great… (http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)

Sure looks good! (Where are the dogs???)(https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-foot-in-mouth.gif)

Best pic I’ve seen yet showing the size of the mine! What were you mining again?

Your layout is very inspiring, It looks like a complete layout, sidings, structures and mainlines.

Were any bricks hurt during the day?

Layout looks great by the way …

“No bricks were hurt in the filming of this Ops session”

That mine is HUGE and your layout is very impressive in the size and the awesome landscaping.
