Hi, I would like to have a fun operations game.

A train is sent into the world. Anyone can pick it up, switch out some cars and send it on with a picture. There is no need to match the equipment being sent, just have some fun.

Please keep the train reasonably short and state your railroad station.

Have fun

(Updated - I originally had the wrong city- Thanks Rob Spanger for the correction)

Here is a FB post from Just Trains in Concord, California (in the greater SF Bay Area) -  They were burglarized early Wednesday morning and at least 12 brass locomotives were stolen. Please be on the lookout for these items showing up for sale on the web, especially e-Bay.  Please pass this on.

Here is the post from their Facebook page .  There is a photo there.

Curious Question... I was sitting here, thinking about the San Diego Model Railroad Museum, and how much track they have... and thinking of my own problems because I let my layout sit for a year...

How are museums around the country (and around the world) dealing with track maintenance during "Social Distancing" while all of the museums are closed?

Are these museums able to get a small skeleton crew in to keep everything clean while the museums are closed?

Hello everyone! This would be my first post! My build is a small switching layout serving one customer. Thought I’d share a photo of a CP box car I weathered. Waiting to be swapped by B&M switcher LA-1 local, set in the late 1980’s in Lawrence, Mass. I’m still in the scenery fase and working on other details in between but I definitely need to get started on a backdrop cause it’s hurting my eyes not seeing one lol...Anyway hope everyone enjoys! And Happy modeling!
