What a great capture! The birds scattering, the majestic towers in the background. Awesome! And a beautiful layout too.

Wood on the mainline wood on the model😊 That layouts, no fooling around. On point👍 Thanks for sharing Joe

[@atjoe1972]

Doug, you’re welcome and thanks for checking out the video. The layout is set somewhere in Oregon, thus it’s lumber themed look. 😎 Photos and videos really can’t do it justice. The forest fire scene is a work of art. I really enjoyed seeing the Canada cylindrical hoppers on the real train. They are a rare sight in my neck of the woods 👍🎅🏻🎄☃🚂🇺🇸🇨🇦

Loved the mixed freight, seeing Uncle Pete and seeing those Canada hoppers. Great video!!! The mini tour of the museum was awesome. I don’t know if I’ll get down to depot now as I am sick since yesterday. ⛄️⛄️🚂🚂⛄️⛄️

I've never visited that part of America. Back in 2014, 3rd December, I spent 10 days and 9 nights in Florida. The best highlight of all for me was visiting Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom twice. Top that if you can.

[@atjoe1972]

That’s cool you got to visit Disney World in Florida, twice 😎 I got to make a visit there when I was a teenager. It’s a really amazing place. I’ve been to Disneyland in California several times. California is only a thousand miles from me, Florida is about two thousand from me. What was your favorite attraction at Disney World?

[@kellyashfordtrains2642]

@@atjoe1972 My favourite attraction? That's a very difficult question to answer. I loved them all equally. Apart from the odd Theme Park ride I wasn't too keen on. However, I can remember the day I went through Fantasyland into Adventureland, which was right next door. After I'd eaten and used a cafe toilet, I ventured back the way I came and spoke to a man in a blue coat, looking over the queue to meet Aladdin and Princess Jasmine. I was told I'd have to wait till after the parade, to meet the two. I put on my best longing-for look and said I really wanted to meet the pair. The man, seeing how determined I was, decided I was not to be disappointed. He gave in and allowed me to sneakily join the back of the queue. I was the last person to have a photo with Aladdin and Jasmine. They both signed my autograph book. I couldn't thank the man in the blue coat enough, for sneaking me in to the back of the queue. Not very many would have allowed that to happen, I'm sure.

[@atjoe1972]

That’s a really cool story 👍😎 It must have been quite a treat to see Aladdin and Jasmine in person 😊 That was very kind of the gentleman in the blue coat to grant your request 😎 Sounds like you had a wonderful time there. Besides Disney World, did you venture out and see other things in Florida?

[@kellyashfordtrains2642]

@@atjoe1972 I made a splash in Aquatica and Sea World. I had my first swim with a dolphin in Discovery Cove. In Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure, I had my first Harry Potter Hogwarts Express experience and met other characters, like the Cat in the Hat who gave me a sneaky wake-up call, Woody Woodpecker and Barney the Dinosaur. I was put into a moving picture photo album on a DVD, as part of my Harry Potter experience, which is now in my possession. I ventured into Florida City Walk and had a cheap i-trolley ride. To top it all off, Downtown Disney was the last place I visited. One Irish Pub whet my appetite for good ol' fish and chips, to remind me of home. "I don't wanna go home!" I mockingly bewailed. But I had to return to my true home. Disney World is the place where magic lives. Of course, I didn't go alone, an older lady was with me who was my support worker.

[@atjoe1972]

Sounds like you had quite the adventure while you were in Florida 😎 I can see why you wanted to stay. Beware of those Irish folk, especially the left handed ones. A shifty bunch they are 😆☘Hopefully you can come back and visit the Magic Kingdom again 😊👍 Colorado is nothing like Florida. We are a thousand miles from the nearest ocean and don’t have any Alligators. Just Mountain Lions and Bears. Oh my 😉😆@@kellyashfordtrains2642
