I don't think I posted these, new ones, since I added the inside loop.
So, if I did, here they are again.

Nice pics guys. Our local Historical Society here in North Central Wisconsin recently purchased a steam locomotive and are in the process of restoring it. They have it sitting on some tracks at the museum that they run. The locomotive thay they have is similiar the ones that used to run through here, although not one that actually did. Will try to get some pictures of it and post them as soon as I can. Our local newspaper had a nice write-up of it but I was not able to access it. May be something about copyright or something else. Had hoped to post thier web address for others to access and see what they had done. I was able to get on their website but the story about the locomotive was not to be found.

Tim, SUPER JOB!! I really enjoy seeing the progress shots and how it all comes together. You did an outstanding job on the water w/waves. Could you share with us how you did that? I have some ideas on how it happened but I would sure like to hear how YOU did it.

Looks like you are having a good time[:)]

Great pics as usual. Spanky, I think you have all the generals don't you ?

Here's another section complete with some pics I took along the way. Enjoy

This section is hardshell, about 4 ft x 6 ft done in my garage because of the Mess


Progressing with paint


Now some water


Now the waterfall


Add some swimmers and boaters


And trees, mountain climbers , and of course some bears


And add trains


Hope you enjoyed...Tim

Dougdagrump your halloween layout turned out very nice.

I set up a quick one on a table right before the trick or treaters came by but forgot to take pics before it came down. Oops.
