It's always nice to see long manifest trains with all that power. Thanks for sharing! George Date: 10/29/09 08:15 Re: Big Train Over Donner Author: spdaylight Larry
Really like the location you picked and especially using three different perspectives - shows the entire train passing with its varied loads and keeps it interesting. It's a winner! Craig |
