BTB 12 online now!

Featuring a Weaver 4-6-4, a custom-run flatcar for JR Junction, the new Diecast Direct catalog and a 1946 railroad atlas from Johns Hopkins University Press. Oh, keep watching after the “so long” sign-off.

BOB,

Nice lighting, but someone cut out the musical tribute to Easter. We only got to see your bunny ears[tup].

Awwww maaaaannnnnn! I knew they’d do that!

RE BTB 12: Curious about your interest in Ohio–could it be that you’re a former Buckeye as I am myself? And of course the late, great NYC running through northeast Ohio with the Collinwood engine yards were quite a site! BTW, what do you think of Lionel’s latest conventional NYC FM diesel. H16-44?

Great series and keep it up!

Yup. Family roots (all long gone, now) in Hamilton, Cincinnati, and up in Knox county, NE of Columbus. The first protoype photos I shot were of the Pennsy & B&O in Hamilton, and the first color slides were of (ironically), mostly Pennsy engines in the PC (ex-NYC) Sharonville roundhouse/shop north of Cincinnati.

Hhmm, I spent quite a bit of time moving cars into, out of and around in the B&O Ivorydale yard there by P&G in Cincy. Need to do a “google earth” to see if anything other than P&G is still there.

Another great BTB. You should see if the “lost beggining musical number” can be added back in, [(-D]. The Weaver Hudson looked exceptional (but out of my price range, haha). The railroad atlas you showed also looked interesting and if I ever got it, it would probably be for the same reason you did (Ohio). Can’t wait for the next episode!
