Train Time In New Braunfels

 Never underestimate a locomotive.

There's a lot of very interesting mechanical stuff going on under a train.

These things are still impressive, and they can't be replaced. 

New Braunfels Time

 Not necessarily a saner place than Lubbock but certainly more pleasant. 

Rather appropriate, eh?

This is a typical old New Braunfels type house, fully restored.

This is a New Braunfels type root. We don't have roots like this around here.

This is a typical New Braunfels type hill. We don't have hills around here.

New Braunfels is a train town-- tracks run right through the heart of it.

 It's very dry. Major drought going on. No relief in sight.

These pics were taken so long ago, I don't remember when.

Maybe back in early October?

New Braunfels is coming up next.
