8: In this photo, you see a few Amtrak E8s from Walthers.
With their line of plated passenger cars in the 1973-75
era, I thought I would get the models while they are avail-
able, to model a nice Amtrak consist. I’ve got a lot of
work to do to finish this train so I really could not shoot
any video of this consist until it is finished this summer.

9: It snowed a lot this past February in St Louis. It
took a lot of plowing to keep the garden railroad
running. Here you see me shooting some very cold
runbys to include in this month’s video feature. The
models are 1:20.3 F scale running on track power of
around 18 volts with no conductivity problems from
the wet conditions.
