A spotless 487 comes out from behind the house and her tender is filled at the coal dock.

I am thinking that the Engine House lead is under repair at the moment as I have seen people working around a certain area outside the house for the last two days.

I was wondering about the switch on the engine house lead - lots of people supervising Tonka toys the last couple of days...

Today was probably the first real time I missed the microphone. After a year having her running gear et al rebuilt I would have liked to hear how she sounded. Oh well summer is coming.

Gee Rich, you going to miss 487's clanking?

LOL, That's exactly it. after the running gear work I want that to be missing!
