I never really felt what 'sonder' until I realized how charming old railroad stuff was and how everyone at the time just saw all that as normal everyday stuff on their travels. It's still crazy.

Love seeing the train stuff you post Al!

Pick up two cheap second hand wagons today, A four wheel K wagon and a four wheel Cattle wagon, they kits that some one has built but needs a bit of lead weight in them as they are to light.

Yes very happy with them my Goods Train is getting a bit longer.
I went down to Barnes Cycle and model Train shop to get help with putting new wheel on my 48 class diesel, I could not work out how the do it, When I asked young Nathan if he knew and he said no, I said your father said you did.
So after a bit of looking we worked it out.
Just need to add a bit of lead weight to them as they are to light and I got to buy a Kadee Couplers height gauge as a the Cattle wagon coupler is a bit low.
The were more K wagons and Cattle wagons but only had the money of for two.
