Oct 5 - Doubleheader

Unread postby Edwin Frey » Sat Oct 05, 2013 7:42 am

Looks like another doubleheader is on tap for today, with a little twist. #487 appears to be the road engine, but the helper is none other than #463! :proceed:

That looks like the 05635 Bob Tully caboose that was derailed last weekend. Glad to see it back to work as it has the nicest interior of the fleet. (Not bad looking for a former stock car eh?) ;-)
