Oh, there's always plenty of that. Where do they get all of that spray paint?

Some of these taggers must spend a small fortune on paint.

Last night we went to the Cumberland Christmas Tree Lighting and I talked my nephew into walking down to the train station. He wouldn't pose with the train, but I snapped some pictures.

Sorry to report the steam engine wasn't in service. 😔 But The Grinch was there on horseback.

The only thing I can figure, cudgee, is his dad works on the railroad and maybe he tells him not to play around trains, for safety reasons. ::shrug::


More nice shots, David. ::tu::

Very much enjoyed your video. Few sounds are as evocative as that of a train whistle in the distance.
