Pictures from 2022 7th Annual Atlantic City N-Scale Gathering

[Nato]

        The pictures of the trains running on the Atlantic City layout were very nice and showcased how some of the modules looked and how Kato Uni Track can be disguised to look better. The video taken on Nebraska Fremo however was mostly "Endless Run By's" of the same trains with different motive power. I had to stop looking about half way through. I wanted to see more and better views of the modules  and yards not just trains. Two trains did stand out. A freight train with a working EOT/Fred on the end of the last flat car no one else modeled this prototype feature, and a double stack train, with the containers actually double stacked, it would appear most modelers are afraid to put the top containers on thinking they will vibrate and fall off, this train also featured one of those aerodynamic top boxes on the first well car that BNSF has used on some trains for wind resistance.

Well, a little surprise came in the mail today. From Micro-Trains nevertheless.

I submitted my group photo of the Gathering to them for a contest and I was selected as a Runner-Up. So what's the prize? They took my photo, shrunk it down and printed it on a 50th Micro-Trains Anniversary 60' box car!!!! How--cool--is--that????

Here's the car:

For those of you who attended and don't remember where you were standing and due to the various iterations of the original file to get it on the box car, here's the original for frame of reference.   Now all you  will always be on my layout!!!!   

Holy ***** that's cool!!!
