Pat's Pics and Vids Continued

 More of Pat's Fine Pics and Vids

Thanks a ton to Pat for sending in so much great material from our train running session this week.

We return to Saturday's action with a visit to Stuart Yard in Bell with a meet of two trains.

Mark powers through Bell as Pat works Track 4.  The masked man is Mr. Mark.

Departing Bell, Mark has his sights on Firgrove.

Olie ensures dad is running the train properly!

Great video footage of the meet.


Much later, their train is heading back east as they traverse the landscape in "The Corners".


Nice footage through "The Corners".

The Ontario Northland crew encounter no difficulties underground as they arrive the outskirts of Peter's Pond at Hayes Falls.

They step through the pedestrian crossing...

....with a bevy of tank cars in their hold.

Olie checks out the railroad facilities.


Nice video shoot of the action.  Olie is a true railroader!

Pat follows behind in short order.

At Hayes Falls.

Through the canyon.

Footage of the train arriving Peter's Pond.

Nice drone shot...

...of Pat's arriving train.

This sampling of video footage comes from Mike.

Pat pulls to a stop at Mercer siding.

A distant shot of Pat's train awaiting clearance through the junction.

Marcel takes his passenger train through the junction trackage just beyond Bellamy.

He will head over to RP&M rails shortly.  She's a real looker of a train, Marcel!

Another fine looking video strip of all that silver!

Pat at Mercer.

Nice train, Pat.

Pat arrives Nelson Yard... 

...where he heads over to the far track to access the teamtrack siding.

We still find Lawrence working away on the gorgeous trestle he built.

Pat heads onto the Fred Mills Bridge.

Three bridges spanning Brennan Gap.

A lovely "going away" shot.

What a great looking scene!

Pat takes the curve into Spruce...

...where he lifts some traffic.

Rolling through Ironwood...


...and beyond St. Helens.

Pat's journey will terminate shortly...

...as his train arrives the outskirts of Craig Leigh.


Nice tail end shot!


Lovely videotape of Pat's arrival in Craig Leigh.

Backing onto the wye to access the Northland Ore Dock.

Almost home.


Thanks, Pat, for running this beautiful train!

A great end to a fine run!  

Much thanks to Pat for sharing all of these pics and videos with us!

All the best, Mike Hamer, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
