FROGRAIL TRAIN GIFS

Structures, Scenery, etc.


There currently exist lots of sites that have those neat train gifs we all like so much, but few include the things that give <marquee> or script-enabled animated trains life:  Trees, bridges, buildings, stations, etc, etc.  This page is an effort to begin a library of such things.  Please observe the Copyright Considerations at the bottom of this page.
