I have a pretty accurate list of what I'm getting for my birthday. Actually, my birthday's over, just didn't find anything untill now. 1 Package of Micro Engineering Code 55 flextrack 2 Atlas Code 55 #7 turnouts. 1 Proto N GP38 (Clinchfield) 2 Freight Cars (Open hoppers) I belive this comes out to around $92. I also have a 38 dollar credit slip to my LHS, which will be spent on various things, well whatever I want at the moment.
From what I've seen, they go together pretty well.
I am building an N scale test layout. Remember TEST layout. On this half of the layout, I am modeling the Haysi Railroad. So here are some pics. Nothing is in the storm door box. Need to work on that rock cut. The shots aren't focused. And the flash is on.
Alrighty, when I get home, I'll get my dad to order my birthday stuff (track, engines, cars) to make sure the layout is 100% operational before I do anything else. But before that, I'll install that backdrop. And Before that, I'll un clutter the layout. Thanx!
I plan on using micro engineering code 55. To much for a first layout? I have heard of the idea of building your own train set, buy some high quaility stuff, and you have your own personal train set. And about tru track, I never did like the all in one track. You don't get the best ballast job, and it isn't as much fun to ballast if you ask me. Call me crazy, but ballasting is one of my favorite things.
Tyler does this mean your not getting the GP40-2Ws?
Sawyer, if I'm correct, you have an airbrush, go buy some dullcoate laquer, and thin it for your airbrush, apparently, it doesn't have that haze like the stuff with the cans.
Completly off topic: Sawyer, our computer just got repaired, and I lost EVERYTHING. Including the links to my favorite websites. Could you give me the NTRES link please?
[quote user="ATLANTIC CENTRAL"] By contrast, one of the least "clean" railroads of that time was the PRR. Again, photos and crew accounts show lots of "dirt" but maintenence was good. [/quote] They couldn't keep their locomotives clean because they were to bussy being the railroad standard of the world.
TGIF!!!!!! Anyway, a few weeks ago I ordered an Atlas Trainman Covered hopper at my LHS. If it's there, today I may buy some of my track that is needed. Joe, as said on other forums, get larger radius curves and more industries. My layout is having an identity crisis. I don't know if I want to model Norfolk Southern, or my freelanced railroad. UGGGGGGGGGG..... BTW, have fun Tyler!
