More Spring Pictures
Posted by SNOWSHOE on Thursday, May 28, 2009 2:32 PM

I was able to get a few more shots today.  Things are really greening up and looking good.  I had my Porter out with one log flat and a caboose.  The guys have not been cutting many trees down due to the weather all they needed was the porter and flat.

 Lets see everyone elses Spring pictures

Overall view of the layout

Howdy Snowshoe; good stuff, neat log bridge piers and I like the electrical mounted on stumps. Your railroad has a nice rustic cohesiveness. Are the stumps real or placed? Either way I like it. Have fun, Rob

The logs are placed.  I was going to use a wooden post but then thought a log would look neat and give me a little space for the switches etc....  I still have to work on the bench.  I just threw it together for now.  I have some nice paper birch branches I am going to use.
