At the time of the nuremberg guards (middle ages), no train existed.

I like how you've landscaped it. 

Two questions:

1) Why the caboose right after the coal tender?  (this was never done)

2) What got photoshopped out of the first picture? (you know it may well have been something really good)

Thank you for your information about the cabooses (I am no special US train driver). You see, I have two of them in the train. Do I have to put both at the end of the train?
My special theme is epoch II in Germany (~1920-30) with the old steam locos, old electric locos and people with caps, suits and hats of the 20s.

I think, I don't understand all of the Photoshop-question:
Do you want to know, what is not in the picture or do you want to know what is corrected in Photoshop?

All is photoshopped  ;) but only the little (left) edge at the end of the rails is corrected fast (I know, I could do it better, so that no one can see anything). The rest is our garden/garden train. But it's not finished: the bridge is not fixed, the crushed stone is missing, the pond in the background needs to be filled and so on...

There would only be one caboose per train.  It would be the very last car. The conductor(s) would ride in that car.  The Engineer and brakeman would be in the engine.  If there were any crew or passengers (rare I know and only if there were no passsenger cars (ie frieght train)) they would ride in the caboose as well. 

They stopped using cabooses here a couple decades ago however just last week a fright train that went by had one on it.  I have no idea why or if they are going back to that.  My grandfather was an engineer on steam trains after world war II (he was a brakeman before the war and joined the airforce in 1939 at the outset of the war.  In 1946 after the war he went back to the railroad.  My great grandfather was also an engineer - so I grew up and around and on trains but the diesel electric ones are just not the same as the steam - in fact, the new diesel eletrics are run by remote control now - just the same remoste as model cars and airplanes..  They use them for switching the cars in the yards now.  That way they only have to pay a conductor instead of a conductor and an engineer and a brakeman).

Anyway, he always talked about the safety issue of not having a caboose and you have no idea what's happening to the train if there is no longer someone at the end of it watching out for anything (ie loose loads, jumpers, etc).

By photoshop I was refering to the clone stamp tool you used and thought maybe you were hiding something good.   ;D
