    Amazingly sharp, wonderful color and detail. Intriguing tho... why two sets of tracks, and why do the smaller inner tracks seem to bend inward but the outer tracks don't? Inquiring minds want to know headscratch.gif

    Good question Jack. I don't know the reason for the two sets of tracks.

    Sometimes a narrow gauge train will run the same road bed as a full gauge train. Also, some rail support and maintenance vehicles will be used that require a smaller gauge rail...but that's generally not the case. Those are guesses on my part.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    You have that right, Tom. But, narrow gauge hasn't been used for general purposes very much at all, lately. It was generally used for tour trains that climbed mountains or for mining.

    On to the photo: Awesome image, Tom K! I especially like the rust spot detail on the narrow gauge. Sharp and colorful. thumb.gif
