I have got mine some years ago from Walters. Sorry, I do not remember any further details of the order I did at that time.
That's it. Fast and simple. He has something complicated in his mind to be done after the ballast job has been done. You can do it with an...
That looks even better! When I suggested to paint the rails first you answered to do it later. I would recommend to try that "later" method now....
That is a good start. You will need to cleanup all ballast from the inside of the rails or the wheels will jump like a rabbit. I use a rotating...
That is a great layout! You had the strength to refrain from overloading the little available space and did successful model the wide open...
Simply outstanding! The rivets and the rust is as realistic as possible.
I have a freelance layout with some impressions from the LAJ in Vernon. The new part will be somehow interpret the LAJ between E. Vernon Ave and...
I gave it a try. Had to simplify the track plan to get a track distance of 2" with the ROCO turnouts. The space in front of the staging track at...
I am thinking to sacrifice most of the staging yard behind my desks to gain some more industries to be switched. The "old" staging consists of...
Have a save trip!
I second that. I have got two BNSF and two UP. They are great engines and I enjoy switching with them very much. Atlas installed a large capacitor...
Very nice indeed! A very well done assembly. Are the CBQ switchers the new P2K SW1200? I did not see them in Germany yet but have a reservation...
Wolfgang, it is amazing how well you did the scenery. I was deeply impressed by your urbane layout but you master scenery at the same high level....
I do no more than two foot (65cm). That is already a pain in the back if some scenery has to be worked on for more than 5 minutes.
That is a very nice and clean layout serving your purpose. Would it be nice to have the choice of different trains to run and watch? In that case...
Wolfgang, outstanding beautiful!
In that era you could build very dense brick buildings with all kind of loading docks and overhead cranes. Small spaces between the industrial...
Is that fixed? Coal is just another word for long trains with heavy engines (multiple). UP/SP does not sound like a small branch line. Do you...
The new added yard is very straight and static while all the other tracks with the curves look very dynamic. You might add a very light curve to...
You might build some interior and put not so bright lamps under the roof (in any case) but not the cupula and one lamp on or at a table to do the...
