2012-04: Tracks on Tracks -- miniaturized!

When will it end? Why, when we're in Toronto. Until then, we are campaigning this week to get you to send us there by voting for us in the second round of the Tracks on Tracks popularity contest, at cbc.polldaddy.com/s/new-survey-3

This campaigning takes the form, this week, of demonstrating pictorially what a great fit we are for the rail medium featuring so prominently in the contest by sharing great imaginary photographs from the Creaking Planks Album of Gig Photos That Never Were But Maybe Should Have Been... surprisingly many of which feature calamitous rail voyages of one kind or another.

For this next photo, for instance, we not only traveled back in time to 1964 but also into a wholly fictitious universe -- and then shrunk down to model train size! Because, y'know, if you're going to do one impossible thing, why not three? So here we are, celebrating Hallowe'en with Gomez Addams by playing a spirited set at the bandstand in his model railway set. And because Gomez plays by his own rules, his toy trains aren't always arranged optimally so as to get everyone where they're going on time -- unless their destination is the afterlife! Of course, model railroad figures don't have an afterlife, do they? (Hm, the theological implications are staggering!)

In conclusion... please vote for us!
