| Below are two pictures taken by Mr P Summers of New Jersey. Both are from railways I had not been aware of before. Just shows how much there is to see in the USA. |
| First is a scene on the New Hope
and Ivyland Railroad - see newhoperailroad.com/history.cfm The engine is apparently the only one in running order and is a Baldwin consolidation built in 1925 |

| Second picture shows a 1942 at the Whippany Railway Museum in New Jersey -http://www.whippanyrailwaymuseum.net/eq_4039.html this showss an ALCO ex military 0-6-0 Switcher similar to the Accucraft model. Thes are a long way from the typical Britsh 0-6-0. They look much bigger and somehow seem to want to be 2-6-2s. |
