In the past, Traction seemed to be pretty strong here at Elvas. Seems lately that it has kinda fallen into obscurity here. SO lets get the Traction ball rolling again! :curiousPC:

Some recent runs on the Mountain Electric Valley transit Line. I'm making a whole set of activities for this part of the route, and these runs were during the testing to find accurate timings on the route. Anyway, on to the pictures!

That's impressive, Rod, especially the automatons wandering about the place. I liked the 'haunted house' squeaky door sounds too.

Last night I fired up the PET for the first time in a couple of months. I kind of miss it.
