SHOW ME SOMETHING!

September, 2017

Welcome to the September “Show Me Something” thread! This is a place where forum members can post their photos containing a view of the “requested” scene or object.

No “real-life” photos but models only. After 24 hours, if the requested scene is not posted anyone is welcome to make their own submission and make their own request. It’s all about having fun!

The last request was for a combine. Here a combine is at the tail end of the daily mixed train crossing the Mill Creek Trestle on the Munsee Valley Railroad.

Show me a small steamer pulling a freight or mixed train

NYC Mikado #9519 leads a short mixed local past Grafton Tower and Barron’s Fuel Supply on the BRVRR layout.

More short or mixed freights please.

How about one of each. The NYBW Consolidation is making a facing point set out at the auto parts warehouse as the Munsee Valley daily mixed train is pulling up to the platform at Bedford Falls. The two will swap some cars in the adjacent interchange yard and the NYBW peddler freight will be on its way. The Munsee Valley mixed train will be turned and begin its return trip to the terminus at Willoughby.

Let’s keep with the same theme. Short freights or mixed trains.

Here’s a short video of a mixed train, done as a test…

More short or mixed trains, please.

Well, it has been two days so let’s try something else. There is a current thread concerning sidewalks. Lets show ours.

Here’s Bertram’s general offices, on Liberty St., which dead-ends at the tracks…

Right across the street is Creechan’s Fine Fuels…

More sidewalks or street scenes, please.

The folks are starting to line up for the day’s first showing of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

Nothing reveals the dust bunnies better than close up shots. It took me five tries to get a clean one. I think I got them all.

More urban scenes, please.

Seeing as no one has posted, Let me reset it. A Wheeling and Lake Erie High hood waits on the Donora Branch, for a Steel train to pass. The steel train will be going into Donora
