Thank you sir.

Great shots Aaron, you captured the nice cold and snowy seen well

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Thank you Merv. Sometimes it gets a bit difficult because the lighting keeps changing with the cloud layers.

I went out yesterday morning bright and early and waited for something I have always wanted to photograph. She's not the biggest or the smallest of her kind and I missed a chance at her last summer and low and behold I got two chances yesterday. So Lucky, without further adoo, here are a few shots for you sir. I just wish I could have recorded the sound for you all.

Lovely pictures Aaron, looks like it was a great day for taking them as well. Also like the diesel backup behind. Is it 1 or 2 diesels and it looks like 13 or 14 coaches being pulled.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Thank you Vic, and yes it had a manned engine and a slug behind it with 14 coaches that were sold out.

Cool shots Aaron!

Wow, great shots Aaron, I love those old trains. I just found my old Lionel train set my dad bought around 1948, hidden in his garage. We use to put it up every Christmas, I was really surprised to find it in A1 condition, just missing the power box.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

You need to set it up and dust it off and take some shots Merv.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Yes please Merv. If I wasn't building planes, I'd be chugging trains. Still have some of my old Hornby OO triple track stuff sculling around somewhere.

Sounds like a good idea, I'll get it this week

Great shots, Aaron...I love the old coal (and wood) burners!

When I was a kid, had a vintage S-gauge A.C. Gilbert American Flyer set when I was a kid, my Uncle Kieth had collected them for ages and used to give me the duplicates and such. If I remember right, S-gauge was roughly 1/48 scale.

Thanks guys, I have been gone for the weekend house sitting again. Sorry for the delayed reply.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Here are a few more from the recent past.

Last of the winter snows, maybe. Nice shots Aaron and love the finches, but what is that first one poking it's head round the feeder.

Good shots Aaron!

Thanks guys, Vic, I think it's a Chickadee, but I could be wrong.
