BUDD'S TRAVELS IN 2005

[home]

WALL OF SNOW - After a big snowstorm, we're not going anywhere, but the Budd Car did its best to plow the deep light snow.  1/23/05

MOUNTAIN OF SNOW - After a lot of shoveling, I was able to clear the main line. Later this year there will be a pond where the snow mountain is today. 1/23/05

A few days before, we were just recovering from a storm, and a few nights of bitter cold weather turned some of the melting snow into ice.  1/20/05

BUDD ON ICE - After a cold spell, Dick Weatherby's pond in Fallston Maryland was iced over.  But when we put the Budd car on it, the ice started to sink!  2/13/05

SMOKING AND NONSMOKING - In the warm Trolley Museum at Scranton, the Budd Car is mated with another one that happens to be smoking heavily.  This layout is normally reserved for narrow gauge trains.  2/19/05

TUNKHANNOCK VIADUCTS - Near the magnificent Lackawanna RR viaduct in Nicholson PA is another viaduct - in approximate G scale.  The Budd car posed on the smaller one.  It was very cold and windy that day.  2/19/05

THE ABYSS - The Budd Car and Mike Moran's Doodlebug pose at the edge of the unfinished  SEPGRS Modular Layout at the East Coast Large Scale Show.  4/1/05

THROUGH THE WOODS - It's still early spring as the car glides along the wooded splendor of Dick Dabney's layout in Chadds Ford, PA.  4/11/05

GREENVILLE DIAMOND - The Budd car has travelled all the way to Greenville, South Carolina, for a visit and a spin on the Poinsett and Paris Mountain Railroad.  5/1/05
