Baby Gramps' Junkyard Land

The Moonshine and I played at a Model Train Show a few weeks back. We were invited by the legendary Baby Gramps, a fellow musician, to fill the hall with songs of trains. Afterwards I took some photos of his Junkyard Train Set - my favorite of the entire show. Enjoy the photos below!

While driving back, we kept seeing views that made us think we had been transported into Baby Gramps' junkyard world... piles of rubber tires in a field... another field full of aluminum shacks... broken down antique cars in front of ramshackle houses... We breathed a sigh of relief when we made it back to Shady Grove and the real world.
