First train on the new bridge

I installed the bridge and ran a couple of trains to get photos for the Garden Railway Article. On Saturday morning it was sunny and cold. I had run a hand powered plow along the track after the last icy snow at least as far as I could, so most of the track was open.

I took some nice atomospheric photos of my little Ruby, though the running with the passenger car was not too satisfactory...the car's steps rode up on the snow and de-railed it.

I ran my LGB Forney around with a short freight and that worked well.

I had some fun with making movies too!
