Here's the Golden State crossing Regal Gorge on it's way the Elm Springs.



Great night shot Scott, you've the depth of field thing down pat.

Love your freight load and the interior Tom. I've done a couple of interiors but unless I call them to a viewer's attention no one realizes they're there. Is it worth the effort?

Very nice pictures, guys. My train pictures are in my camera and I have to wait until I get to work to download them because my computer is not working right. Probably too much junk on it that needs to be removed. I'll have to look for a removal program and clean it up. Meanwhile, I do have this picture that's been sitting on my computer for about 10 or so years. I'm 2nd right to the Gipper. I led the joint service color guard at his library, honoring Colin Powell w/Freedom Medal. Both great guys to talk to.

Well it's sorta off topic, but the subject line said photo fun, and nothing to do with trains, so.....
Here's a pic that will give you a big laugh. The Klingon-head is actually me when I went to a Halloween costume party this last year. The face is mine but the head-piece & wig is just the costume. Have no idea who's body that is but it sure ain't mine.....LOL

Dave, Great pic. I'm sure most folks dont know what an honor that was. Congratulations. Could'nt quite make out the # of service stripes on your sleeve.
My nephew just made E-9, (Army) and has 3 more years to 20. Whole family has been Army for 5 generations, except 1 Marine. Oh well no familys perfect.

This picture is using the ceiling tile scenery article in March CTT by Jim Riccioli. Not painted or flocked yet, but is really easy and Quick to do......Tim

Tim,

5 service stripes, each 4 years. Rank is Gunny, 3 up and 2 down w/crossed rifles.

Glad to see the ceiling tile project is coming along. Looks like that will be a really steep cliff.

Night scenes are my favorite. Hope this shows OK on your browser.

Nice pictures everybody, this is my 1961 Dinky Toys Vanwell racer with a metal driver. Given to me the year I was born.

Hmmm I think I figured out the technical difficulties using an Apple. The Explorer version saves the link as a javascript. I have to use Netscape where it saves it in the proper script. In both cases a pop up window simply says save address to clip-board. The examples posted only work with Windows. Here are more pics of my pike. Its semi-built. needs road-bed and more antique lithographed structures. But also displays my toy car collection most of which I aquired as a child


Happy Sunday Picture Day[:D]

Today at the Springfield Train Show, I brought home the following cars:

Out the door for $25. Always great deals at Springfield. The gondolas were just $5.00 ea and the Coast Guard Car was $10. They had great prices on MTH and Williams. The selection of G scale was not as good as their fall show but they were running G scale with TMCC.
