Don't get me wrong Kenneth. There is nothing wrong with weathering, its only that I have been train modeling for over two years and I don't have the experience to weather structures or rolling stock. As for the big boys I have, well I bought them at a very good price from an older man (much older than I) who was who was liguidating his collection. In 1998 Rivorossi was selling them for $299.95, today you can get a new one for $159.95. Perhaps the hobby is experiencing a depression of some sort. As for my website, well, I got carried away by including stories relative to the individual sites in my layout. Such as the airport and air & space museum, and trips we've taken. So stay with it and be patient browsing in there now and then. I've collected most of my locomotives at yard sales, train shows and through the Tehachapi Railroad Club. Have fun. Sounds like your grandmother is reacting to your weathering same as I did when my son and I began our first layout several years ago. At the time I didn't what was going on but he did, he was way ahead of me. Now, I'm using a few of his old locomotives as fillers on display on my layout. Jesse
