Post war 224 with a load of Pennsy freight making it's way past the factory backdrop I am building.



This is 42 wide by 28 high on the ends with a center recess for a building sign. It will have a ten scale foot wide loading dock spanning the center area.

Hi Good morning Tom How can shutterfly make these pictures bigger. On my computer I can zoom in on them and make them much larger and clearer. Felix

[spankybird]

Goodmorning Felix,

The largest that shutterfly can post is 600 pixels wide. Notice the differance when you click on my pics and when you click on your pic. The differance is that when I was in Shutterfly, I enlarged the thumb nail and then viewed it as a 'slide show'.

hope this helps

Hello everyone
I know they are Gscale photos, but I wanted to share them with you if that's alright. Tell me what you think about these.





















Ask any questions that you woud like.

[pbjwilson]

Colin - Love the G gauge.
Tom - You must have gone to Burger King this week - My kids love the Ice Age movies.

Got this Trainmaster on e-bay for $100. That was the starting bid and I was the only bidder! It's a keeper!

[Munster518]

Sunday is the best, this is what I look forward to seeing everyones awesome pictures[8D]. This is something Ive been looking for quite sometime now. Its just a caboose, but its one I always wanted for some reason. It will look nice behind my postwar FM lackawanna trainmaster. Now, only if I can find the tuscan version of this caboose[:)][:D][8D][;)]. Great pics everyone






It even has the original shipping box from lionel, WOW

John

[pbjwilson]

John - Nice caboose. What does the shipping label say? Where was it shipped too originally?

I think it adds alot to have the original shipping box. Gives it a definate history.

I am starting to repeat my photos because I borrowed a digital camera to take these and I do not have the camera now for new shots. But I will attach this one. Tom, I like the animal theme today.

[Anonymous]

Tom....You are such an animal...............





Caught some Idaho State Troopers having coffee and GRITS at the CHIEF'S diner..

[Birds]

Great photos folks! I haven't seen one of those Mastodon cars in years...

Felixg,
What make, size, and year is your Hiawatha? It's a nice looking train.

[waltrapp]

Spanky: once again you remind how much fun we all should be having with our 'toys'. Thanks!

tmcc man: For some reason I've always liked the look of an engine running the rails all in its lonesome. I love the one that you posted.

My offerings for this week:

Pharmacy by Lionel.

Signs by Miller with apologies for the over exposed night ones.

Pharmacist (my daughter), dental hygienist(my daughter in law) and man with toothach by trainsformations.

[tmcc man]

Thanks, waltrapp, and pbjwilson. I have more shots I just put on my shutterfly account, I will put them on later.

[Anonymous]

Ok. Going to attempt to put a few in. Let's see what happens??









Looks like you guys are good teachers. Still learning how to use the camera as well as some of you. That's my new Williams GP9 eBay win (got a Lionel one coming too..must fix the front coupler but for $54 bucks I couldn't resist bidding). This loco solved the problem of having to constantly man the throttles on the graduated trestles. Must be those rubber traction tires!

Yo' tmcc man -

Love that photo of the blurred G-scale SP F7 in Black Widow livery. Really gives the illusion the train's accelerating out of town. Great pictures guys.

Oh, BTW gas has hit $3.00/gallon of regular locally. Ouch! [|(] [tdn]

[dougdagrump]

Pleasant morning on the Hi-Line.

If you like that one, check out these other two I took.





Dougdagrump those are Atlas's right? I don't remember what models they are.

Nice pix everyone.

[dougdagrump]

Colin, The B&O is a Lionel SD-40 and the C&O is an Atlas SD-35.

[tschmidt]

The pictures everyone. Thanks for sharing.

[jefelectric]

Great bunch of pictures everyone. Tom, you are a wizzard with the camera. Everything very sharp.

[pbjwilson]

Dru - The Southern Geep is a beauty.

Layout still under construction.

[Buckeye Riveter]

Great photos this week.

[MartyE]

A little corner of the layout I'm working on.

[darianj]

Great photos everyone.
Felixg...Your layout is coming along nicely. Keep it up.

[johnandjulie13]

Thanks to everyone for sharing their photos. I am hopeful that I will be able to post a few in the near future.

Thanks again!

John

[marxalot]

Wow, nice photos all. Quite inspirational.... and on Sunday too! Mr. Spankybird, I'm never sure what is more colorful and fun to see; your rolling stock and layout or that bird! Please give him a cracker or whatever you do to treat him for his great photogenics!
