Work continues on this layout. I tried my hand at some WS "Forest Canopy" tree armatures. They are little more than some sort of shrub, snipped,...
I'm excited to see where you are heading! I need to get back to work on mine...
M.C., always a fan of your work! Can't wait to watch your latest installment!
How about looking at the following (NS units notoriously had top-mounted ditchlights): NS Dash 9's (Kato's only offered ditchlights on the...
I again humbly request anticlimbers with NS style top-mounted ditch light housings... Pretty pretty please!!!
Thanks Mike! Didn't realize that little tidbit about the copper tab!
Hey guys. I just wanted to tell you I've been "rocking" and rolling lately. Here's a few shots of my hand-carved shale rock faces. [IMG] [IMG]...
So glad to hear atlas has overcome that huge hurdle! I thought the day wouldn't come soon enough. Thanks Atlas!
Over the last few days, I had a chance to experiment with puffball trees. Since this layout is centered in Pennsylvania, its hard to find a single...
I saw them at my LHS... Look good but $400 is out of my range right now
Progress is coming along, slowly as usual. I completed staining and weathering my "matchstick" retaining wall, and literally spooned in coal...
I'd like to see SD60E's since NS has at least three potential paint schemes they can replicate. Not sure if they would sell like heritage units,...
I model modern era, but I'd be happy to pick one of these babies up. There's something about Pennsy that I love...
Similar issues with my ACE's. The trucks fall out if you look at them funny. They ran great out of the box, but adding DCC has been troublesome....
Virginian Railway hit it on the head. I'm not expert by any means, but I model modern NS coal ops and my fleet consists of 2 Dash 9's (with the...
I model modern era, but I love Pennsy stuff. Haven't collected much, but I have a an AB set of Pennsy F-units.
Good looking layout!
Not an MP36, but during a quick teardown of one of my ACE's, I found a plastic shaving in the worm gears. Ran much better after I removed it.
Any chance on anti-climbers with top-mounted ditchlights? Maybe hollow behind the housings for easy insertion of LED's?
Looks good!
