Very cool video. Immense possibilities for model railroad. I can easily imagine this as a model RR. Terrific shot Andy

Thank you Thom. I have always loved the idea of Rail Marine Ops. It is pretty unusual to see it done today but in the past it was pretty common in New York Harbor. As you know the first attempts started in the ACW days. It would make a nicely contained layout.

Interesting. Seattle still has barge access for Alaska bound Freight and the terminal does look much different.

Interesting. I would like to see that operation. I’ve always found rail marine operations fascinating.

Perhaps you could call the manager in chaŕge and explain to him what you want. And ask for a guided tour.

@@roberthubal6278 Any leads?

[@roberthubal6278]

@este_Pandy_Projects I don't. But perhaps if you call the railroad office. Or find out where it is at, you could contact someone there. And explain your situation.

@@roberthubal6278 Good idea. I’ll have to look more into it.
