Invasion of Friends 2016 Standard Gauge Ops at Fred's Through the Lens of Seanna and Steve

 
Seanna also railfanned our "Diesel Day" known as Standard Gauge operations.
We do notice a steamer in the mix.  We can forgive Steve and Seanna as it is their new steamer and they are awaiting the arrival of their new diesel from the paint shop.
 
 
Jim and Sue brought out this gorgeous looking puppy.
 
 
With its twin brother.
 
 
Malolm, Henk and I look over Nelson Yard.
 
 
And...a busy place it is!
 
 
Glen Hammond seems a little lighter at this time.
We have visitors checking out the railroad.
 
 
Gord railfans Nelson, the yard he usually mans.
 
 
My diesel is quickly brought into action.
 
 
At the western end of Nelson Yard.
 
 
Using the curve at Belson as a yard lead.
 
 
Seanna and Steve's signals.
 
 
A nice Canadian Pacific geep.
 
 
Barry's Toronto, Hamilton and Buffalo geep.
 
 
Long hood forward.
 
 
Don at the controls of this little puppy.
 
 
Bruce in Spruce!
Hey, that rhymes!
 
 
Bruce...still in Spruce.
 
 
A look down the patio.
 
 
A meet at Watkins siding between engines from two different generations.
 
 
A successful meet it was.
 
 
Bruce has this passenger consist well in hand heading up to Bell.
 
 
Seanna taught this little girl how to run a train.
She was a quick study!
 
 
Table talk!
 
 
A hive of activity.
 
 
Is lunch ready yet?!
 
 
A deeper conversation on train ops!  Yessirree, we take it seriously, but we make sure we have a ton of fun!
Thanks for checking in!
