Something You Don't Often See

Pacing videos of British steam locomotives.

Here, a BR Standard Class 4MT 2-6-0 76079 moves out on "The Cambrian", a mainline excursion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzzhFnk6ZYA  You won't hear it on this clip, but the loco is equipped with a chime whistle.

And here Castle class 5043 with the return segment of a Bristol-Plymouth excursion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4r5SklgMCU

Detail on Coach Cars

My tail sign coach cars for the El Cap train are almost finished.  The two cars are detailed but one is slightly dirty and will receive some more weathering and the other one is fairly clean.

Thanks to Chuck Davis who sent me this link: It explains and depicts the operational moves of building a freight train. Very cool.

Are giveaways allowed?

I know that commercial posts are not allowed in the forum, unless one is an advertiser.  What about freebies?  I may have a stack of magazines which need a new home, and I thought I'd offer them here if that's legal.

Sunshine Region Meeting in Orange Park Fl

Was wondering if anyone on the MRH forums will be attending the Sunshine Region gathering in Northeast Florida this Saturday. Would enjoy meeting others that I have chatted with here.

Trouble Uploading an Avatar Photo

I've tried multiple times today to add a photo of myself to my account, but it isn't properly loading.  I've created an image 85px by 85px.  When I try to upload it and then 'Save' the changes, it refreshes indicating that no file was chosen.  I've also tried to add a signature line but nothing gets saved.  What am I missing?
