Very nice.  Neat to see all the old models and all the transfer moves from the several railroads.

The "Gooseneck" is definetly a cool place, and this is the first I've seen of this angle.  

The only "Through" trains were the coal trains.  Interesting to note the UP's were loads
and the BN train was probably an empty.  

Nice stuff, thanks for posting.

The "Gooseneck" is that area just off the Hanibal Bridge where the tracks on the
upper level take a big S curve and the lower level tracks split, with one branch
taking a big turn towards Santa Fe Junction.  At least that's what I've always heard
it called.
