April 5th- Joe Comes Home for Easter
Post date: Apr 08, 2012 5:53:15 PM
My youngest son, and only modeler, Joseph (below) came in for Easter. Joe and his wife, Rebecca had great news- Sue and I will soon again be grandparents. They announced that Lillian Eve Kamm would be joining them the next time the family come home. Lillian is expected about 8/20.
The group was tired from all the work last week and ready to have some fun- Let's run trains.
Mose Crews (above,left) is patiently waiting while the grain train (Train 603) occupies all of the mainline in Shreveport. We also see Mose Crews (above, right) when life is slower and quieter in Shreveport.
Lionel Brangham (above) is busy with his WiiThrottle working the
Shreveport Public Belt Lines in Keithville.
Paul Harwell (above) took over the duties of
Sue City Switcher for the evening.
A common scene, only backwards--
Matt Tessier (above, foreground) is the Marville Operator and
Rob Robbins (above, background) is the mainline operator.
Here we see Matt Tessier (above, left) waiting for
Ron Brannon (above, right) to complete
his switch moves in Maryville.
Danny Garland (above) was the "Keeper of the Ring" this session
as he used the RailPro system by Ring Engineering.
Marvin Bennett, Jr. seems to be having fun as he switches Robinson.
Ken Ellison (above, right) is using his WiiThrottle to bring a train into
Sue City where Paul Harwell (above, left) is waiting to help.
Rodney Dixon (above) is checking his train in
Alexandria Yard before leading north bound.
Here we see Joseph Kamm (above) has taken the
RailPro system for a run on the mainline.
Let's see now-Â
We have Joe switching at Jeauxville.
Joseph also took photos this session- Thanks Joe.
Proud grandfather, Richard Kamm, (above) is taking it easy as the Dispatcher.
