Re: At the Park friday, November 17, 2017.

I will be out and about at the Park on Friday November 17. Look for me on the train at some point! Will be in the Lobby of the Grand Californian early in the AM! I think I'll just miss you by a day. My current plan is to be there on Saturday the 18th which is also coincidentally Mickey's Birthday a...

Re: Possible Steam Engine Replicas?

I didn't vote because my top three picks were not on the list. :( D.,S.P. & P.R.R. Cooke mogul: http://www.ross-crain.com/dsp/dsp71sml.jpg Isn't the Colorado Southern #9, technically a DSP&P Cooke Mogul? I know it was rebuilt when it was transferred over to the Colorado Southern but it stil...

Re: Will Graham County Shay #1925 EVER run again?

Since they have limited "operational periods" due to the FRA regulations, I know that some groups prefer to rotate around which engines they can restore and get certified for operation. What? It's 1,472 days (under pressure) or 15 years, which ever comes first. Rotating engines will do no...

Re: Will Graham County Shay #1925 EVER run again?

Sounds like it may have been overhaul time again and they didn't have the necessary funds to do it Either that or the organization has moved on to another engine. Since they have limited "operational periods" due to the FRA regulations, I know that some groups prefer to rotate around whic...

Re: Lionel Disney Parks Train?

Maybe Google photos doesn't allow remote linking of pictures. You could try just posting the individual URLs to each picture instead of trying to have the pictures appear directly in your post. That might work, though people will have to click on each URL to see each picture individually. That's no...

Re: DRR sim update

I hate to be the one nitpicking, but is it a possibility that the Ripley's bell will be corrected in the final release? I know it's been discussed already and it wouldn't change my mind about the simulator either way, but it's just something that I'm wondering about. I have a video that Sam made of ...

Re: Shanghai DIsneyland Railroad

Another thing might be the whole Japanese culture. This is another part of the Japanese culture being incorporated into TDL, but I also liked how clean the park was. It was noticeably cleaner than both DL and MK. I could not find any bit of trash anywhere on the ground, even though there were very ...

Re: A few decent pics from my recent trip

Yes, this was my first time on the new route. Overall I really liked it... still have the same complaints about the width of the bridge and the safety netting.. almost feels more like riding over a pier than a trestle but I get the day and age we live in. I really like the raised right-of-way over ...

Re: New Fireworks Projections?

We watched the fireworks last week from the Fantasmic viewing area. When they do the "All Aboard" segment of the fireworks show there is a projection of a train going thru something that sort of looks like a station modeled a bit like small world. What I found really strange was the loco ...
