Hi,
Here are a few oddities I recently found. First is an etching showing the traditional joke about proper engineering for railroad track laying - (3-rails instead of 4). Did D&RG and the South Park move cars by hand?
==============
As was mentioned here before, there are two 2-2-2s in the Atlantic. Here's a photo of a 2-2-4T.
==============
How's this for strange junction track work. At a guess only, I suspect the PRR 4-track was being separated into two double track lines.
==============
Finally, I was reading a book (fiction) about alternate history set about 530 AD - right at the time of the last Roman emperor. The first of the six books has twice used the phrase "we've gotten side tracked" which I suspect is about 1300 years before railroads invented the term and started using the phrase.
I found a photo of the shortest transfer table I've seen. Darned but is just a little too big to upload.
