The DIS Campers Train Thread: From Model Trains Up To The Real Thing

[DL1WDW2]

thanks for sharing Now I need a train trip !

Just a reminder that Brightline has a Sale going on that ends August 17 for Southern Florida residents. I think it is a discount on their Passes .
I’ll have to check for other discounts that might be available.

I picked up something for the train room. I'm not into train-related collectibles or ("railroadiana") but I do have a fondness for the Dietz lamp oil lanterns (I think I've mentioned those in my camping posts once or twice). Specifically the #8 Air Pilot in different colors.

Recently, though, I found Dietz makes a railroad lantern (and has for decades so I got one to hang - not fuel up) and use with my railroad stock certificates and system maps of the Southern and DRGW as decorations hanging around the room. It's black with some gold accents.



More time coming this fall hopefully with the railroads.
