I helped out for a short 6 months restoring Yellowstone 227 when I was working in MNN (it is the slower one in the last few seconds on the clip)
Its now an exhibit in Lake Superior Railroad Museum in Duluth.

To be fair I am not a trainspotter myself although I do like letting the train take the strain. The website was mentioned in an article in the London freebie paper, Metro, yesterday. I know there are several train type obsessed people here so I thought I'd post it.

There're some huge locomotives over there.
Check out the Big Boys too.

for helping a woman who is moving she gave me 2 boxes of records and a box with Lionel train set, figure 8 track and Plasticville buildings all with original boxes.

great records even the Beatles White album WITH the poster..... that is going to be framed.

I admit being one of the lurking train lovers.

The webcam reminds me of what one of the old German Astra satellite stations used to broadcast instead of a test card, they just stuck a camera in the front of a train and ran the footage all night. And just to say I didn't sit there are watch.

I have suggested to my partner that she contact (the brilliant) http://www.nicecupofteaandasitdown.com/ and see if they would like a roving correspondent on the tea rooms at model rail shows and preserved railways. She thought the cake at the Shipley show a couple of weeks ago was excellent and very reasonably priced. Manchester this weekend.
