Photos look great.
I'm alway a bit jealous of you guys outdoors, oh well. I'm six months into the rebuilding the shrunken head that is my layout, and still wondering how it will look.

   Have fun with your trains

Nice shots Rock, I'll give you mainline guys in the states the respect you deserve - when you build a RR you sure don't do things by half measures. What's the road surface made of?
Cheers,
Kim

Very impressive. I wish I had more room for sidings but must compromise with `she who must be obeyed`. She has no say in the shed but they are not the same indoors. Particularly liked the nightscene.

Hey Again,
My favorite is the Shelby pulled over by the cop. I can almost hear the guy in the car..."Honest I never knew it would go that fast!" Keep it up pal. Glad to have you on the forum. Later eh...Brian.

I must say I am impressed! Great work, I love the diesels and yard facilities. May I ask about your ballast? I see that you may be using two grades? Is your track "free floating or is is mounted on some type of roadbed material?

What about the watertower? Home made or scratchbuilt?

Brian my wife talked to this cop after being pulled over for speeding to reply" I didn't know a Buick(She was driving a Century) could go that fast"

Rocky,
These are my favorite kinds of photos. I like the stance that Police Car has! Looks built to handle whatever it may have to chase. I wanna' do a scene where the cop is driving a Hemi Challenger and has just pulled over a "Tuner" import. It would need the caption "This is Detroit boy...ain't you figured that out yet???" [:D] Yes...I prefer Horsepower to sewing machine engines. [8D] Just havin' fun!
