'sharp' in both the technical sense of the word, and as a term of appreciation...   Take a good look at the weathering!

That should give someone excellent weathering ideas.

Thanks for the photo, Dave.  I've been studying the track in the foreground, specifically the rails.

pretty sure I see 2 different rail sizes, but definitely some missing hardware and a couple fairly short rail splices.

Definitely light rail all around!

Ouf. I have a couple of these, smaller ones, one built, one waiting to be assembled.  This is gold.  Thank you.
