The 261 Is At The Depot |
| Description: |
One of the pikes at the Twin City Model Railroad Museum is a three-rail O-scale one that features the downtown Minneapolis Milwaukee Road depot. Museum volunteer Al was kind enough to set up their Lionel 261 for me to take a couple pictures of during my visit. Note the Northern Pacific articulated at left. If only such a scene could exist in the prototype world. |

What Are The Odds? |
| Description: |
I had caught the 261 at Eden Prairie a couple hours before I took this photo of her Lionel O-scale replica. What are the odds? (I got to get me one of these babies myself, once I have a pike big enough.) |
