Almost Operations

I keep getting closer to having operations on the Santa Barbara Subdivision but am still not there. The SP Santa Barbara Sub has come a long way since that abreviated op session on January 23, 2007. You can see a photo and read about that night in an early blog post here.


Some of the same friends from the South Coast Society of Model Engineers, the local Santa Barbara model railroad club I belong to, were over again on December 6, 2011. I still have some track tune-up to do so we struggled running trains. Michael Lopez, one of the club's junior members made an attempt and finally got a short passenger train running on the second level.



Here are some photos and a video.















Behind and between Paul G and Michael L is the location of that first impromptu operating session mentioned above

















Here is the rest of the crew assembled at the curve of Santa Barbara Yard





Here is a short video of the second level passenger run
