In my opinion, MSTS sometimes looks better in greyscale, black and white, sepia, and other "artistic" editing. How about a thread with your submissions. I'll start with some classic wooden interurban cars from Jewett Car co, on the Oregon Electric, rolling down Main Street, in mid-morning light.

Hi Tim,

Great photos! ( Although that 3rd one doesn't look very real :-) Color photos from this era do look out of place - the B&W ones look are a lot more natural.

BTW - check your spam folder - I am not sure if my emails are getting through.

Hi Wayne, and thanks! Yah, it was late last night when I posted these, and that pic of the old Hall trucks in Portland got in somehow. Hey there's trolley wire over that spur, so it falls under "juice" heading somehow. ;)

Yep, changed my email addy due to the number of virus-laden illicit emails I was getting.

Nice shot - standing there in the ditch, you must have been eaten alive by mosquitos waiting for those cars to go by.
