Zoom An International Great Northern (a MoPac line in Texas) freight crosses an open span bridge. I kit bashed this in N scale from a stock Kato bridge.
That's a funny-looking 'Rocky' on the flanks of that caboose..... Oh, sorry, wrong 'Great Northern'! Nice bridge! I am about to embark on a huge project of detailing and painting 8 HO engines into D&RGW paint for a RR club friend....
I started building some lasercut building kits in the weeks before and during the hurricane as well as some detail parts for the buildings. I weathered the first two buildings: The pile of tires came from Model Tech Studios unfinished. The next two buildings have to be weathered: I started to weather the loading dock on the building below: [ October 28, 2005, 02:27 PM: Message edited by: Powersteamguy1790 ]
Bob, In honor of your 3600 posts, I'm posting a Denver Public Library photo by Otto Perry of a 2-8-8-2, D&RGW 3601: Castle Rock, CO:
Hemi: Thanks for the photo. The 2-8-8-2 is one of my favorite steamers especially with the feedwater heater up front. By any chance do you have a side view of the piping as I have brass feedwater heaters that I want to outfit all my steamers with and really like the detailed piping on this loco. Stay cool and run steam....

O.K. Here goes. O.K., this is my first complete cycle of moving an image from digital camera to PC, to CD, to Railimages, to Trainboard. Now all I gotta do is get better at all of the above. [ October 28, 2005, 03:32 PM: Message edited by: Helitack ]
Its been a while, but I finally uploaded some new photos and I will share them now. this first on is of my downtown area which is now populated mith many new ho scale cars This next one is of a kit I recently completed and it will be called Lake side Elementary school This next one is looking north on main street This last one is of some scratchbuilt log cabins
Bobby, What you need to do is select the photo you want to post, click on the full image then right click. Select properties then copy the link, then paste into image box. The reason your pic is small is you copied the libk of the thumbnail. Here is what it should look like. Russ, Love that shot but how could I not being MOPAC
Russell Terrific perspective down to the vanishing points on the river and backdrop. Bob- Those tassles disguised as piles of tires are a terrific touch. I like what you have done with the new kits. Nelson- Fine looking town. Pete- You work is always at the level of perfection. Bob- Nice looking start.
Hey, Got up to the layout yesterday.With these shaking hands,I'm doing my best to take good shots.Here are 2 good shots.In the 1st,an ABBA set leads a "LONG TRAIN" of coal.MEC FAN,the 1st "B" unit was yours,thanks. The 2nd is an F unit in DL&W's "Grey Ghost"scheme.It was painted & detailed by Scott Lupia.
hemi: That's what the billboard says. It actually goes with this building: I should have used the billboard that said "Ace in the hole" Stay cool and run steam....
No photos from me this weekend, as I am moving my layout from a shed into the loft. This means I will have a much longer run and better staging with maybe some more industries on the opposite side of the room
Russell: Did you photoshop the image? Is that from one of the modules? Thanks. The reason I ask, beautiful river and scene!!
