MY NEW TURBINE


My 2026 and 2035 are in the restoration sheds right now, otherwise i would have them in the pics. Ill take some pics when the restoration/ repaint is done!![:D][8D]

Pics of the two kinds of trees that are on my layout.




Its great to have a webcam now, just with the quality was better. [:D]

[tmcc man]

That is what I will have to get. A webcam!! Jerry, they all look like postwar to me except the one red/black PRR caboose. Am i correct?

[Anonymous]

Yes Colin, you almost got it right. The only non PW stuff I have now is my lionel brown PRR boxcar, the Red Williams boxcar, the blue and green Williams gondolas, and of course, the red caboose.

thanks Colin!
I appreciate you removing that photo..

while you are at it, technically you shouldnt be linking to that C420 photo either! [;)][B)]
that isnt my photo, or my server, but it is someone's..
directly linking to images on someone else's server, without permission, is called "hot linking"..and its also called "bandwidth theft"
and yes, it is really theft..it is stealing bandwidth, which costs people real money.

ROy,

All of the portals and elevated track supports that I make have some sort of "personal meaning" graffiti on them. This one is really out there though.

1/49 = when I was born.
6/02 = when my son got married
12/03 = when my daughter got married
4/06 = BOTH my son's wife and my daughter are expecting that month (same day actually!).

I have lots of personal stuff like that on a lot of things. This one's kind of cheesy because I just wasn't in the mood to put time into it to fancy it up. But something, to me, is better than just having a plaing portal.

Interesting that you noticed something some like!

[tmcc man]

Scot, I am gonna remove it right now! Did not know about those thefts.

Thanks Colin

Chief-NS mainline is only a few miles east of my place. I even got to ride in a NS GP-38 at work a few years ago when they were switching cars out.

Walt,

Thanks. That is what I suspected, but I thought it was neat how you did that for your family!

Spankybird; I really like your layout but one thing sticks out to me and is a distraction, the transformer on the top of the layout and switch controls. Would it be possible to mount these under the layout on a lower table or the switches on a piece of plywod?
I used to live in Reading PA, that's why phillyreading.
Lee in south Florida aka phillyreading

[spankybird]

Philyreading – that is a good point and maybe my next project. Here is the complete control table. Before I added DCS, the height of the ZW was and is great for conventional control of my trains. As you see, I also have a KW below it. In the bottom cabinet is the DCS TIU and circuit breaker box along with extra smoke fluid, etc.

It is convenient for me to operate the trains, but does get in the way of taking pics. [;)]
