Totally amateur phone camera pics thread.

Nice. Very realistic looking set. I live near a main freight line and most cars now are containers and garbage cars. There is also a lot of graffiti from some very talented artists.
I am old enough to remember the cabooses and circus trains. Now they put an engine in the middle of the string and sometimes on the end for better control.

They do that here in Seattle a lot, there are coal trains with export going to Canada, oil, and export wheat that have "DP's" (Distributed Power) for better train handling.

My ride into downtown Seattle during the week.....
'98 EMD F59PHI and Bombardier bi-level coaches.

You guys post pics of your model trains (which are very cool, btw) and I start getting ads on FB Marketplace for model trains...

Yes indeed. Your Digital Twin is now interested in model trains just because you looked at some on an online forum. Now, of course, mine is too. My Digital Twin is also now up-ticked a notch as a potentially troublesome conspiracy theorist. :)
