the U.P. big boy rolled into town to pose and greet the hellgate bridge and river area it was a cold day most residents are in thermal underwear with heavy coats with gloves and flask of Holiday cheer all were warm inside and out! the big boy crew slowly eased her onto the trolley line drivers moaning ever so slight to the tighter curves but managed to get her placed for all new Yorkers to see.

If you don't mind, I will make this happen. I will call Roger on Monday and send him this photo. I have referred several layouts and photos to Roger and they get published. I have gotten to know him well over several years and he is a super guy personally and a giant in our hobby. He recognizes talent and you and Tammie have it.

works for me thank you PTC if it doesn't get published that's okay to. it was just a fleeting thought when I put the big boy in front of the bridge for all on forum to enjoy and possibly get a chuckle on my comments.

Your work is just too good not to be published. Watch what happens now.

I went online to a website and paid a small fee to be allowed to download and use it as my backdrop the image was to small so they had to flip it back to back to get the 12 foot length we needed. I used the fed-x business center to have it made on a vinyl backing is 3 feet tall and 12 feet long I think its either a semigloss or flat been to long ago to remember think it set us back about $200 to have them make it hope this helps you. I found the website it is www.123rf.com

PTC I'll watch for it in CTT. as I was running trains today I remembered the long hours and sticky fingers getting that backdrop on wall! Ironically if you all really look at the center of backdrop it looks like a dogs image right between the 2 tall buildings and no we didn't plan and or create it am guessing from the image being flipped back to back take a close look
