Car Carriers in G-Scale Garden Train Land - 12-31-14

(Blog Entry by Bob)

Lately, I have been enjoying photos from G-scalers in New Zealand and the southern United States.  While they have been enjoying their trains and building new features for their layout, everything here is nearly frozen.  There is a chance for snow this weekend and with the weather today being partly sunny,  I gave my butt a push outside to clean the track and run a train. After buying a used car-carrier in the late summer I realized I had not run all my car-carriers together.  The weather stung at my nose and fingers but I managed to get a few new photos of the layout just in time for New Year.

At this time Mary and I would like to thank you for following our blog and hope you have been enjoying the photos.   We would like to wish you a Safe and Happy New Years and cannot wait to see what will happen in G-Scale Land for 2015!

Tankers Away in G-Scale Land - December 14, 2014

(Blog Entry by Bob)

We REALLY like Tanker Cars!  Mary and I  both get very excited when we see tanker cars travelling past on the tracks near our house.  For the past 4 years, we have slowly been collecting tanker cars for our G-scale layout. It wasn't until this summer when I gathered them all and hooked them together that I realized that we have more tanker cars than any other rolling stock.  I was having so much fun a couple of months ago, that I forgot to take pictures of the tanker cars all together.  Having nice weather again I took them out for another trip around the rails.
