This old house, or, Gone but not forgotten
Author: WrongWayMurphy

A friend of mine in the DFW area just took down his FW&D themed layout,
based on the Burlington subsidiary Fort Worth & Denver between Wichita Falls
and Fort Worth, TX.   Here is my freight train near Alvord, TX during the last ever operating
session last month.

Its sad to see a fine operating layout close its doors for good.

Was he on the layout tour during the NMRA regional convention this year?

I like the house.
I guess someone got the pink Mary Kay Caddy.

No, I dont believe so.

Pic 1 - overall view of half of the double decked layout - other half, and three more operators, to the right in this photo.  
          Two of the four guys in this photo railroad for a living.  

Pic 2 - Another F-unit lead freight at Decatur, TX

Pic 3 - Bellevue, TX rock crusher. Accidents will happen, and operator takes the heat after run session complete.
