Hey, I guess Russ got hung up on something,so I'll this. Also, Happy Easter everybody. This is an area I'm playing with.It was a spot I didn't know what to do with. I think this has potenial.
I've been putting my camera in spots you can't see (unless you are a true pinhead) It shows big problems. [ April 15, 2006, 10:36 AM: Message edited by: Pete Nolan ]
I'm sencing a steam theme... The Apahe Railway officials out on an inspection tour How's that for a short roll by?
SNFF 4 15 06 For this week.... I'm working on some old N scale 1996-era Kato Santa Fe freight F7s. Even though Intermountain is coming out with some sometime soon...... I can't wait (smile). Have a great week, all.
John: That F-7 is looking good. I just picked up a Key Imports brass ATSF F-7 AB unit. Stay cool and run steam.....
My contribution this weekend. One from a day at the Blues! I might have to try the Helicon software someday.
Nice pics people. You never know what will turn up on the unscenicked/non timestamped NYC Brian Division. B&O SD7 on a transfer run. P&LE GP38-2's + caboose visit the yard. HAPPY EASTER
Yeah, great pics! Everyone's layouts look so finished. Mine will be a hulking module for years to come!
WHATS GOING ON !!!??? I would think I would see the easter bunny in the conductor's seat, jelly beans in hoppers, and eggs hidden around the layous.... and other Easter themes in this week's photos.... Anyone?
Can any one tell who this layout is that i had the great pleasure of visiting . I will tell you later. Alan
Joe and Sharon Mainz' HO scale layout will be on the NMRA Lone Star region tour. Joe is a member of the local HO club; we had coffee and dessert at his house last Friday and I had a chance to take pictures. This layout exudes patience. It is about 8 x 16 feet and is wonderfully organized. Wonderful ballast and track work. Bridge and water modeling the picture below. All of Joe's scenes are documented for a specific place and time. Model: Prototype: Road made by using oil based paint to color inverted asphalt shingles. This causes the discolorations you see here. Joe found this by accident. Another well organized scene. All prototype siding locations, etc. AFAIK, this layout has not been photographed before. Joe and Sharon quietly move along on this project and spend a lot of time making structures for the club. Not a bad job, I would say!
