Descriptions of the construction progress of my new Florida model railroad featuring the line from Lakeland to Punta Gorda. Originally a journal of RV trips throughout the United States and Canada with Patti and Bob. Also photo documentation of the progress on my Maryland model railroad, the Allegheny and Shenandoah, a mythical class one line connecting Strasburg VA. with Elkins WV.

Big Mississip
We took the ferry up the river and got some great views of New Orleans and the massive amount of river traffic that plies the waterway each day. The ferries are free to pedestrians and one we took traveled several miles up the river past many marine terminals. The top photo was taken from the river and shows the superdome on the left and the rt 90 bridge over the river on the right. The fabled trolley system runs right next to the river in the French Quarter. This shot was taken at the foot of Canal St. behind Harrah's casino.
