Howdy. <br /> <br /> What has always worked for me is using real trees. I have also heard of saving Sprue from plastic kits, and painting it brown for straight logs. I havent tried this though. I model the Cass Scenic in Mower days, Im on the Leatherbark Railroad " the Old and rusty." <br /> <br /> As far as pulp wood loads go, At the Elk Valley Railroad Club We use saw dust for pulp loads, hoiwever I highly reccommend what I do. That is to get fome stick out of your yard ( these are best when harvested after a wind storm.) and a Knife and wittle off the bark. This is realistic, and creates as much as you want depending on the size of the log. <br /> <br />I was at the Clarion Jamboree back in April ( this is an event presented by the I-80 group of the NMRA) and they used a foam block, and pasted the pulpwood as siding. <br /> <br />What is it about you guys tonight. this isnt an art gallery. And thats what most of these photos are, art. <br /> <br />Many thanks. <br />G.W.R
