You
will follow a 60 car double stack train as it makes it way around
the layout. This will give the visitor an idea of
our club.

| To continue the tour where we left off
on the previous page. As you can see the two BNSF engines
about middle of the picture, the next shot is taken from just
above those engines. |

Taken from the top of the cut, the double stack leaves the
main room and enters the tunnel to the town of Empire in Diamond
Flats room.
|
|
| The town of Empire and our train passing beneath.
|
|
| Empire to the left and the engines are proceeding
onto the Diamond Flats siding while passing Fulton Shipyard. |
|
| The double stack is in our smaller room
now. Diamond Flats is the yard on the left side of the
picture. It is the only original section of track that
was saved when BDL was moved to its present location.
James Hulsey is the youngman in the door by Fulton Shipyard. He is the
son of our treasurer.
|
|
| The train has now left Diamond Flats room and re-entered
the main room. As it passes beneath Osborne Mine on the
siding, the lead engines are already in the next tunnel. This
tunnel passes under lap siding. When they exit they will
be at Green River on the lower trestle. |
|
| The engines are now on the lower bridge over Green
River. You can see the cars entering a tunnel going under
lap siding where a BNSF grain train sits on the siding. |
|
| The long double stack winds around the town of Wilbe,
through a tunnel that underpasses the main and onto the lower
Green River trestle. |
|
| The end of the train tour. The engines are
back on the main next to the industrial section of the layout
while the end is still at Wilbe. When the train enters
the portal in the center of this picture, it passes over the
switch for Make-up yard.
I hope you have enjoyed this tour of Black Diamond Lines
Club. Please come by and see sometime.
