Switcher #462 makes a water stop before heading out:
thats awesome 
i dig that little switcher
Been missing you. Love that little engine. Great detail, as usual. When do we see pics of your latest diorama, what ever it is?
I think the sole purpose of those camelbacks, other than having personality,is to make it a personal hell for some poor fireman. Sorry for the downer,but I worked at lot of my life as a laborer and I just got through watching “Dirty Jobs”.
is the engine kitbashed or did you buy it because it looks very realistic.
Go to Bob’s website, he has a slideshow w/ a ton of pictures.
I have gone thru his website many times just love the fresh stuff!!! THank you Bob been missing your photographs also.

Bob, spectacular as always!

Now that is useful for jobs to avoid.
Try working around a slaughter house and brine house in the hot summer heat with flies.
I get so carried away…
We have missed your pictures these days! Very nice! A testament to Quality is better than Quanity.

The 0-4-0 is a Mantua Goat. I re-lettered and weathered it to match my railroad.
Bob, is your website still up?
They had the additional purpose of putting the engineer in the way of some serious harm if a siderod came adrift…[#oops]
Of course, the basic excuse for the Wooten firebox was the need for a LOT of grate area under an anthracite coal fire - which leads to my next [%-)] question. Where was anthracite mined in WP country? Or does Bob have an occasional hopper with RDG or NYS&W reporting marks unload at his coaling station?
As for the photo, I’m green with envy. Oh, well, someday - after I build my way out of the netherworld…[:-^]

As always Bob, great stuff!
Hey, how do you do those signs on the sides of the buildings, like on the siding or bricks. How about a tutorial?
You have a very nice layout.
