Progress not perfection

Welcome to Cottonbelt9290.com. My model railroad is about the many memories I have of the Southern Pacific and what the ESPEE meant to me growing up in the San Fernando Valley in the 1960's & 70's as a young Adult in the 1980's. It's my interpretation of what it was for me back then to be trackside watching what was to me the Greatest Show on Earth. No Fancy graphics or Elegant presentations here, just me having Fun with Trains.

What's New!
