I'd just like to visit it someday.........

It it is still there.

Looing from Google, I'd give it good odds of being there.....waterway runs adjacent to a state park, etc...

End of the season is upon us...........and this is an interesting group of faces,

[MurphOnMillerAve]

They all look peaceful and content , no doubt the result of the pastoral community.

Well, some seem to be smirking and mentally planning mischief, and one or 2 might be a serial killer, and is that Bob Denver 3rd from the left, but yes, they do appear to be ball players that have been enjoying the game,

Oh, you're so clever and observant.

Does "Bob Denver" have a cigarette in his fingers?

Sure looks that way to me,

S.B.&B.?
Looks a little chilly.
Great smoke plume.

[MurphOnMillerAve]

Interesting paucity - or so it appears - of ballast among the ties, esp. at the switch.

S.B.&B.?

Susquehanna and Buffalo related line, I'd guess

Looks a little chilly.

Winter is coming

Great smoke plume.

This is what I think of when folks on OGR claim that their engine smokes really good............however this is what I consider good and why the smoke in model trains will never be realistic or adequate to represent.

Maybe....it's up to a few inches from the top of the ties in between the rails; I think that modelers tend to overuse ballast bringin it up to the tops of the ties all through the right of way while "enough" was more likely the amount used.

[rogruth]

Yes, I made that mistake with ballast but the example I used was a short line through our town,
G&Ws Georgia Central, that had been done not long before I ballasted my layout.
I agree with what Rufus said about smoke.

For me a little smoke on my model railroad is sometimes too much. The amount put out by
post war Lionel is just fine. Remember I don't care much for all of the engine sounds either.
Whistle/horn and bell is usually all I need. I have a couple of steam locos with sounds that
I will play when I have non model railroad visitors. I don't have any diesels with sound.

Not a train or anywhere near the CVRR, but...........

Wonderful hat. The legs are very nice, too.
