Spike Gorley's favorite train is the Canadian Pacific as his family is from up there somewhere.
Marvin's MRL executive train has a little competition from the Western Pacific RDC that ran as a

in the RDC but small chance to ever ride with Dennis Washington who owned the MRL.
I talked Robert into run his BN switcher up on the green branch to get my photos in less covered spots.
Mr. SP&S Keith Wiles got a new toy! We may have to start to calling him Mr. BN with the addition

There were three of them if you don't count the replacement for one that got wrecked.
