Today the In-ko-pah Railroad was host to three distinguished guests from Down Under. Wayne Hoskin, John Turner and John Hall came all the way from South Australia!
And since I had everything set up I also shot some new pics of the railroad… First, a couple of overall shots:
In this shot, a passenger train is about to cross Serenity Canyon on the high bridge, while the “Tin Lizard” railbus crosses on a lower level:
And here they are passing the town of Mineral Ridge:
Enjoy!
Great pics Ray, Thanks for sharing.
Not much weeding there to worry about
Still always cool, still always jealous.
Great job!!
Thank you for the opportunity to visit your railway, the trip from Australia was worth it for that alone.Your railway is superb and pictures just don’t do it justice.
Wayne, John and John.
Thanks Wayne! I enjoyed meeting you guys.
Ray, never thought about this before (and I have seen your railroad), but how do the trains get from the highest level to the lowest, if they do? Helix? How steep is the grade?
I always enjoy seeing photos of your work?

Z shaped (twice folded?) dogbone, I think.
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,

Thanks. I wish I had thought to get photos of visitors sooner. We’ve had a couple other MLS members visit earlier this year. Dave Taylor and his wife were here in March, and Art Sylvester came by in June.
Great Pics. makes up for my bad timing.
I hope you’ll get another chance to visit someday, John.
