This morning was the Cleveland track factory. This was an excellent tour but no pictures inside I’m afraid.
Here’s me and Tim Warris geared up before we go:

The Norfolk Southern have put the Convention logo on one of their locos:
The Rock and Roll hall of farm is on the way with some stunning architecture:
The William G Mather:
The National Train Show is coming on:

They needed to clean the windows first!
It had a great view out the door though:
