Just finished a run on the Rosebud Falls Scenic Ry. (Actually it was set to run on constant loop while christmas lights came down. Of Course I did take a couple of extra long breaks, so as to “maintain” the GRR.
Happy New Year to All!
Marty do you have a link to a site with some more pics of your layout?
We could but my husband is rearranging the track.
In northern California, we only ran our trains in the spring and the summer. In the winter we found new things to add to the lay out, fixed buildings, and generally let the weeds grow.
Here we are more diligent about doing year-round weed pulling–otherwise the weeds would win. Our garden railway has much more space on our acre on the Big Island. However, we downsized, having no idea where we land when we came after retirement. But yes, we can run trains in the winter here.
I hope to be running trains next winter and post some snow pics 
right now in IA its raining, but earlier this winter we has some good snow for train removal -sounds alot more fun than shoveling …
Marty,
How many cars are your 3 Dash 9’s pulling? It looks impressive.
