You asked for it, you got it.
It was a wet one, yet there were a few brave souls. We left too early, by the time we were home and checked the radar we realized the rain was done. Oh well next year.
So, on to the photos.
Pic one is the track on the left is going up hill.

Now we are half way up the grade and it is the track furthest away.

I have turned around for the next shot. The track loops around on the top of the hill and comes back in the middle (running back through hill2 and is the right hand track in hill1).

This is the track heading back upleading into picture hill2 (the one with the steamer).

on this next picture you can see the return going back to the station some 500 feet away.

This is the same track from the other end on the right.

The station area is at the bottom of the last picture (above).
11 more pics to be posted tomorrow. The 6 I just did took 1 hour to load and SWMBO says I need to go to bed.
