Here is an old photo to start things off this weekend. Looking forward to all the images you folks post.
Here are some cars that I have finished this week! Atlas 17,600 Gallon Corn Syrup Tank, painted and lettered for CPC Int'l with Herald King Decals. Front Range 50' ACF boxcar as a stand-in for a GATC Car, substituted Branchline 6 Panel Superior Doors to match the prototype, Painted Boxcar Red, with Silver Oddballs Decals. (They also have white and yellow for the same car) Atlas 23,500 Gallon Tank Car, painted Signal Red and lettered with Oddballs Decals. Thanks for looking! Rick
Finally got the carfloat & apron installed, water effects and some basic ground cover done. Still need to add some more details: ropes, more weathering on deck, dockside details, etc.
My contribution are a couple from the op session on my Clinch Valley last night Action around Richlands Running a train up The Loops A video I shot of some of the action can be found at: http://www.youtube.com/user/ClinchValleySD40#p/u/6/ZBti9GKfRUQ
Is that a model, Scott? Maybe I'm crazy for asking :tb-biggrin: I've been building the loco house for the Calais yard, using a mix of Plastruct and Evergreen styrene. It's not bedded in yet, and I still have to add a couple of things to it. That didn't stop the MEC reclaiming it though. Mike
Some photos from Eric Lundberg's layout S&LS 2-8-0 #82 at Granite, Colorado Later seen on the Turntable at Salida. Two Santa Fe trains meet on a bridge in Thompson Canyon.
Didn't you sell this on Craigslist not too long ago? I think I almost bought this from you but had no where to put it at the time. (last fall??)
That was a hollow core door layout that I sold on CL. The layout in this pic was 19'x 7' and now resides in the local landfill. I am building my new layout now in my newly remodeled train room. Hows your attic layout coming along? heres a pic of the HCD layout I sold....
Mike, 12" x 36" dio set up almost on top of the old MKT ROW in downtown Katy, Tx. Here is a another piic showing how close I actually am to the ROW I also must say Mike I am a big fan of your work, ever since I saw the article on building the quary, excellent job!
Over the past few weeks, I installed a ton of trees at Tunnel 18, did more scenery blending, added sifted dirt from on-location, greenery, and today, ballast. Here's D&RGW 3027 westbound at Tunnel 18 with a manifest freight:
