Holding an op with the MOP
Author: WrongWayMurphy

A buddy of mine held an op session last night, I ran a local freight.
Area depicted is East Texas in '74.

Fun times with a great group of proficient modelers.

After I tied up the local, I took on the local Marshall T&P switch job

Extremely nice layout and I would guess that the operations were excellent, too!

Lastly a quick video of my local.

Tonight I reciprocate with ops on my Texas & Gulf pike.

That's really some great modeling there!  I wonder who keeps the grass under control...  That healthy verge looks like it could grow overnight.

Loved the trains and wonder if steam is ever allowed on the property.

That pic of Main Street across from the depot captures the small town look very nicely.

Great photos, models, and layout.  What are the origins of the MoPac GP18 on the local - Proto 2000?

Thanks for sharing and providing photos taken from the aisle. So many of the published outlets don't do that. For those of us that build model railroads, we find that viewpoint interesting.
