Since I found these forums, I decided to share my layout with you guys. So I started work on a website. What started as a labour of love has turned into a pain in the a---. Too much technology to learn. I did learn to put photos onto photo bucket and post them here, thanks to cabbage, cheers mate!
So, until I care enough to finish the website, here is a slide show from my photobucket.
Enjoy! http://s282.photobucket.com/albums/kk272/MtBeenak/?action=view¤t=9206edb2.pbw

Looks great! I can see a lot of work and devotion to the hobby in your layout. Jack
The grey coloured rock is local to my area and is called 'bluestone'. If you crack it open, it is a dark blue inside. It is very dense and is used for road metal. It was also cut into large slabs for building foundations years ago. The red coloured rock is scoria. It is a light weight rock, having many air pockets. Both are volcanic. Bluestone seems to attract moss, but only on the southern (dark) side.
Hi Mick,
That is a very interesting and impressive railroad you have there. The detail is extreemly good which makes it a great railroad.
Like you I had considered a web page and realized that all I wanted to achieve was to show pics of my RR and therefore a web site not really necessary. I opted for Picasaweb which seems to suit me computer illiteracy well.

Nice work Mick. I'm inspired; think I'll go out and work on my railroad.
