LK&R Layout in April 2006

I originally posted these pictures of the LK&R layout on my old website on February 9, 2008. I have included a few that I hadn’t before.

My dad took these pictures of the Longview, Kelso & Rainier Model Railroad Club’s HO-scale layout in April 2006 at the club’s home club at the Riverside Community Church (the former Rainier Elementary School) in Rainier, Oregon. These pictures feature the club’s custom-painted locomotives and cabooses. Something happened to cut off the left side of the first few pictures. I originally skipped some of these, but am including them all now for completion.

Some of this picture is cut off, but most of Longview, Kelso & Rainier SW1000 #100 can be seen in the yard. In the background is a Union Pacific track cleaner converted from a Model Die Casting Alco-GE-IR 60-ton boxcab diesel.

Some of this picture is cut off, but Longview, Kelso & Rainier U28Bs #281 & #280 are pulling a freight train on the main line past the double-crossover at the end of the yard and the freight station in the industrial area in the background.

Longview, Kelso & Rainier U28Bs #281 & #280 pull a freight train on the main line past the double-crossover at the end of the yard and the freight station in the industrial area in the background. This is the same view as the previous picture, but this one came out entirely.
