 DJ, your image is very nice...well done.  Cool

Karl, you continue to pop in occasionally with jaw-dropping models.  Simply amazing. Thumbs UpBig Smile

In a much more modest effort, a J1d Hudson pulling a local is about to cross the Seneca River Trestle.

The local runs through Indian Rock Cut. Indian Rock is visible behind the locomotive.

The local switcher passes Lake Watchinson, a summer hangout.

Enjoy!

Just a shot of my model of the Cape Cod, Mass. bridge and railroad trestle over a gorge with cascading rapids.  A Faller roadway with battery operated HO trucks and cars will travel over the bridge, which connects two towns, that are 18ft. apart. Don't know why I can't Post the picture on the UK New Railways Modellers Forum, after successfully Posting two other pictures on the same thread.

 Is that some slot car track I see there? Smile You're after my own heart, since my little home layout is actually a road and rail.  We had a lot of fun racing and railroading while my son was growing up.  There was some occasional broken plastic, but it was well worth it.

Looks good.

 This is what I was working on this week.

How do you get fire trucks this big:

to fit in a building made for fire trucks this big?

You move the back wall of the building farther back of course.

From the front it all looks normal.
