My local NMRA Division held its monthly meeting at the East Broad Top RR this afternoon; we brought our spouses / family members and had a picnic lunch at the pavilion at the end of the line (wher the train is turned on a wye). The coach ticket also includes a shop tour. The RR was running # 16 today.

Hot for us, but even hotter in the locomotive cab...

Did my first N-Possible coupler replacement over the weekend - a BLMA gon with a 101-URS-K Short Shank Universal Retrofit Coupler, a drop-in replacement for the existing MLT body-mounted coupler.

No, I will have to look for that issue the next time I'm at Barnes or my LHS.

That facility truly is a time machine.
