A little diversion from the ONR today. A couple of people on my FJ&G group are planning on modeling
Broadalbin Junction to Broadalbin on the FJ&G so I thought a few pictures might help.
20 heads north out of Gloversville with four cars for Coleco and Broadalbin.
Arriving at Coleco to do some switching. Spotting one boxcar in the plant and lifting one. Also
lifting a covered hopper from the Vinyl Track. These two cars will be left behind while the rest
of the train heads to Broadalbin and picked up on the way back.
Train heads to Broadalbin through the countryside.
The crew arrives in Broadalbin and takes the passing siding. Martin Lumber loads their cars on
the main and the Broadalbin Coal & Supply and Larro Feeds may have cars in the passing siding, so
care and a bit of pre-planning is neccessary before the train arrives. The FJ&G all door box will
be for Martin Lumber, the SCL car for the freight house, and the Ma and Pa car for Larro Feeds.
The two FJ&G and the CACV all door boxes are loaded with lumber heading to the interchange in Fonda.
The crew leaves the three heavy boxcars on the main and heads down the hill to lift the two outbound
cars from Coleco, then it's time to head back to Gloversville.
