That is true, Ike. It was a good workout.Waukonda wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2024 3:57 pmSounds like a great hike, thanks for posting the cave info, love stuff like that.1967redrider wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2024 12:48 pm I just did a 3 mile hike on the WMSR and found 17 old Western Maryland Railway spikes. Anyone need one? Hiked from Cash Valley Road down to Bone Cave and back.
So, you did a 3 mile hike, and came back 10 lbs heavier (spikes)
You better take a bigger coffee cup next time.

I spied this Geometry equipment while cruising up Virginia Ave. in Cumberland yesterday, had to stop and take some pictures. Incidentally, you can see some fields at our farm to the right of the white tank car way in the background.

Here's what made me think the U.P. Big Boy didn't cross the Mississippi.

Re: Any Train Enthusiasts Out There?
Cool pics, John, you are certainly in a scenic area. A couple of days ago my wife came home from a little shopping, and was telling me about some "weird" looking train that she saw. She told me, "I was going to stop and take a picture for you.........but I didn't". So, I don't know what she saw.1967redrider wrote: ↑Mon Sep 16, 2024 12:20 pm I spied this Geometry equipment while cruising up Virginia Ave. in Cumberland yesterday, had to stop and take some pictures.

Btw, I was checking TCM's upcoming schedule. Beginning at 5 am cdt this Friday the 20th, they are showing 9 consecutive movies which take place aboard a train, always interesting to me to see rail travel from differingtime spans depicted.

I saw that TCM lineup, Ike, I got excited. And then didn't see Emperor of the North listed. Still hoping that some channel will aire it sometime.Waukonda wrote: ↑Wed Sep 18, 2024 11:00 pmCool pics, John, you are certainly in a scenic area.
