Model Railroad Article #10: Inside the Cab


 In this article, we go over a very realistic operating to happen on a model railroad and thats being on the inside of a locomotive cab. The photo above says it all, the conductor of a coal train is inside the cab of Santa Fe C-Liner #5028. He is ready for the days operations and you can clearly see the windows of the locomotive behind him. To get this type of photo, you have to have a flashlight mode and take the picture with that, and make sure the photo comes out clear.

Now this photo you can see the engineer and conductor together in the cab and it is the same Santa Fe Locomotive.  This is for sure something fun to do on a layout if you can.
