Just like the prototypes, running a garden railroad has its hazards. Falling tree limbs seem to be my nemesis lately. I suppose it is due to all the loosely-attached hickory limbs – ice storm damage from 2009. These before and after photos tell the story of the hard work put in by the 2-man (in 1/29 scale, each hand counts as a man) track gang on the Hook Line & Singer RR this Spring. So far the station has been spared, but more wind is probable. –  Bill Thomas, President and CEO, Hook Line & Singer RR
