The Coon Creek
Railroad
Track Expansion - 2002
As the size of the 'Alamo
Gang' mini-meets grew, the number of trains running on the railroad grew.
It
was not uncommon to have 3, 4 or 5 trains running
at one time. We needed more track !

To say
THANK YOU to Bob &
Alma, various members of the Alamo Gang pitched in and purchased
materials to expand the railroad. This included a new main
line route that went around the shop itself, plus the addition of a
passing siding in the shop/yard area. |

Here is Bob
with his Sperry Rail Car making a trip over the new Main Line
section. Notice the
elevated fill needed for a level main line. |
