A retake of an earlier submission. This piece obtained in a trade with the amazing RaySouthernPac. Thanks Ray, I never get tired of looking at Myrtle's. The whistle works great, but the amount of labor and damage needed to run the wires through the subsurface of the layout is such that instead I am going to wire Myrtle up to a nine volt battery stowed in her interior, so I will get to hear her sweet whistle blow!

I'm pretty sure you guys are shocked to hear that I actually have a building of the week.  Anyway, it's gonna be a drive in made from an old Arnold Rapido caboose that I got in a lot of N scale stuff for $15.

| Came home from work with some daylight left and did an impromptu scene with farm building as a prop.

Funny, she must have run all night and is presently shunting cars off a dog train in El Paso. You'd better go check...oh never mind, this one is a high nose.
