Courtesy of the Superintendent of the Cold Spring Shops, I've received word of the Roundhouse Roundup. In the words of its organizer:
Come celebrate that innocent joy with the Roundhouse Roundup, a blog carnival for model train engineers of every kind--from Thomas and his wooden railroad to all the scales of not-toy railroads up to and including ride-on trains. All are invited to climb aboard! You may not come away from the Roundhouse looking like this, but then again, you may get inspired!
Since I've got only a handful of HO-scale railcars, I don't count as your average model railroader, but nonetheless I reckon I qualify. Why's that, you ask? 'cause I'm an avid fan of Microsoft's Train Simulator software, released back in 2001 or so. My railroad runs on electrons, if you will. I've got until tomorrow to figure out a post---probably roster shots of some of the queens of the electronic fleet---but I fully intend to participate in this one.
I'm not usually one for the blog carnival thing, mostly because I'm usually too self-conscious to submit. Luckily, this one seems to be perfect for me. Rip, you oughta get in on this one too.
