Odlično! Šteta samo što je to na suprotnom kraju amerike, od onog koji ja sakupljam.prva je uslikana u relativnoj blizini Penn-a (15-tak min pešice) odmah posle Hudson Yards-a,
a druga u Queens-u (Long Island City) Sunnyside Yards.
Ti srećković, to znaš?Lik me odveo da mi pokaze VI.
Jesi, jesiMa daj?JA sreckovich?
Pa TO je to, Jerry, kaj ima bolje od toga? Fakat moram zapaliti preko bare da vidim to u živo (kad-tad).I jos kad mi lik rece da je radio za PGE (pazi nije BCR) onda mi se smucilo.
Aaa, nemoj tako dragane, ovu sam nabavio prošle godine, i vrlo je korisna:Sve knjige na svijetu ti ne pomazu. Maurice Cloutier is the name...
Kad je to BCR imal;a interchange sa UP?Nemoj me ljutit,valjda je bio Jim Hill i Great Northern(GN).I evo ga, malo crne 'ozdal, malo smeđe unutra, malo zelene po vratima sa unutrašnje strane,+ sanduci za teret,
i ova dva stara Athearn/BevBel-a su savim prihvatljivi modeli, posebice obzirom na cijenu koliko su koštali:
BCIT 803609 View attachment 91631zanimljiv je natpis na vagonu: FOR INTERNATIONAL SERVICE ONLY, što znači da je taj često išao na jug prema Seattleu,
jer je BCR imala interchange sa UP-om, i na snimkama njihovih vlakova, često sam viđao tamno zelene (BCR) vagone.

Dogwood su zabrljali, otisak cvijeta je malo loš..., ali može se prikriti weatheringom, ili prekriti decalom.

I zajedno, sa otvorenim vratima, u propuh varijanti - dobro će se pripasati uz prethodna dva Athearnova BC Rail teretnjaka,
sa kojima će činiti solidnu bloketu u nekom konzistu; a imao je i Roundhause neke slične BCR teretnjake koji bi se dobro
uklopili u ovu priču. Njih si pikiram, ako mi ne pobjegnu.
PS @challenger - jesu počele kiše gore kod vas, da pogase više te požare?
Nemoj!!! Dovoljno je da pogledaš ove linkove, pa ako lažu oni, lažem i ja:Ili da se popisham po Maurice-u?
Rekoh ti da sam na svojim Pentrex DVD-ima viđao zelene BC Rail vagone u sastavu UP kompozicija i to sveInterchanges
Between 1928 and 1952, the PGE interchanges were difficult—at Squamish there was a barge connection to North Vancouver and the rest of the North American railroads; after 1952 the PGE could connect with CN at Prince George. Connections were made to other railways when the railway completed its Howe Sound link in 1956. The main connection
to the North American rail network was in North Vancouver, where there was a connection to CN. There was also a rail
connection to deep-sea terminal operator Vancouver Wharves, and some interchange occurred with the
Union Pacific Railroad through the Seaspan railbarge link between North Vancouver and Seattle, Washington.
The railway also interchanged with CN at Prince George, and with Northern Alberta Railways (acquired by CN in 1981)
at Dawson Creek. CN's line between Dawson Creek, British Columbia, and Hythe, Alberta, fell into disuse in 1998,
but CN agreed to reopen it as a condition of purchasing BC Rail. However, as of 2010 the line between Dawson
Creek and Hythe is still disused.
For many years the PGE owned and leased tugs to move boxcars: it had PGE Transfer No. 2, and PGE Transfer No.3.
It chartered tugs Lilloet, Dola, Prestige II and Squamish Chief. The PGE owned its own steam tug, the Point Ellice.
The PGE also chartered CPR tugs and barges and moved boxcars to Coal Harbour and Seattle.

i to su znači kompanije čije vagone mogu slobodno umiješati u sastave PGE/BCR kompozicija.However, as the railroad was greatly expanded after World War II its freight was vastly diversified from
interchange traffic with major connections (Milwaukee Road, Canadian National, Canadian Pacific, Great Northern,
Northern Alberta Railways, Northern Pacific, British Columbia Hydro & Power Authority, and Union Pacific)
