I loved the black and whites above, Tomkat, particularly the last image...very nice indeed! Also, I think your lampstands are exellent...and highly cost-effective, Jim. I would like to include one a B&W.
It seems alien now I bet, but back in the early 90's, you could find the B&O paint scheme, which still seemed alive & well... if you were in the right place, alongside brand new wide cabs .....

Hiya. Thank you for the kind words. The lamppost is N scale which is a challenge for 72-year-old eyes Regards, Jim Maurer Tokushima, Japan
