Sven, I've got 8mp images along the trans-continental railroad (Lincoln Highway, old U.S. 40 or I80), mostly north facing from Sparks to Salt Lake City. If you have interest PM as to where I can send them. Love seeing the Contra Costa in Z. As a kid we use to go fishing around it's scuttled remains near Antioch (or was it the Solano, I can never remember). It was surprisingly well preserved in the 60s, although a few years ago it burned to the waterline. Mark Thank you, Mark, PM is on its way.  It was the Solano, Mark. Here is a fantastic web site. At the bottom of the web page you can even find the construction drawings we have used for our Z-scale Contra Costa. cprr.org/Museum/Solano/index.html Best, Sven |

Don't scrape them, there's always the CZ's predecessor, the Exposition Flyer:  not to mention the various Burlington "baby" Zephyrs. Mark |

Now, since everybody is waiting for AZL's "California Zephyr", the interest is rising to see more of the Burlington Route, isn't it? View Attachment  A set of E8s may be a good starting point; View Attachment Sven. ...One of them is an E9. Just keeping you honest 😝😞😐😑 |

Archistories ( ArchiStories 128171 - Viadukt 'Altenbeken' ) is providing a beautiful Viaduct model (actually the Altenbeken Viaduct is the prototype).  Dirk built a small foto diorama around it.......  |

 Do you also like short lines?  E.g., the (Chesapeake) Bay Coast Railroad? |
