I'll go back and caption them when I get a chance.

Great pics, thanks Tim!

Those 0-8-0s look really good.

Thanks, Tim. Assume the white reefer is InterMountain's new milk reefer. Boy that 0-8-0 looks nice. Not much progress on the Athearn F45's since the WGH show in February, it seems. Those two shells look like the ones that were in Atlanta.

I was going to stop and say hi to you after the breakfast, but I was looking for Fred Hoxie to ask a question before he ran off.  By the time I found him, you were busy with photo ops and I needed to hit the road.  Maybe next time.

FYI - we met in Chantilly; I was working the BANTRAK loop when you set up the Super Trainmaster in our yard to run the Red line.  I told you which track to set up on, and switched you out of the yard.

Yes, the white reefer is the new one from IM.  There are two shots of it, one from the side and one from the bottom.  I took a shot of the end, but it is horribly out of focus.

Athearn said they were working on the mechanism for the F45 and had no eta.  They are planning to offer the unit with and without sound/DCC and need to develop a mechanism to accommodate the sound board and speakers.
