Those are the same people I have seen getting into trouble on other layouts. Now they are over on your layout causing trouble. They sure get around.

Love the scene and your layout. Nice work.

Laz - I love your lumber yard!  I recognize the 787 accessory.  I don't think I've seen the other buildings or crane before???  Did you build these?  Are they operative?

JIM, correct on the787, works great the crane is from the Lionel construction set.  A guy here was selling em for a buck so what the hey.  All the other buildings are scratch built.

Thanks,

JELECTRIC, JOHN, got them 10 for a buck at The Train Station in New Cumberland.  Got the pallets from SANTANAS at YORK.  Hot glued the barrels to the pallets.

Thanks,

Jim,

Like your stockyard, I think that is the first one I have seen posted, other than my own.

Laz, nice to see some pics of your layout.  Where did you get the barrels on pallets?  York?  Did you buy them like that or put the barrels on the pallets yourself?

Thanks for posting the pic, Marty!  I sure appreciate that!  I'll try again as you suggest with another view. 

Wonderful photos everyone.  Somebody throw a bucket of water on those 2 in the back seat of Tom's '41 Lincoln Continental.  Looks like Frank will soon be able to get his trains off the shelf and onto a proper layout

Colin, I'll try getting some shots of the Torpedo.  My photos skills are as terrible as the lighting in the room, though it seems I can get detailed shots of layout dust perfectly.

Thanks Tom 

NewbieLady - you have made an excellent choice for your figures - the Artistta figures are the best - nice layout.

Got the basis of this platform jimmied up to see how the fit will be.

This is the effect I was looking for, the industries in the background and the crane in the foreground:

Some new additions to the layout.....

[tmcc man]

Wow, this has to be one of the best Sunday Photo Fun's ever. NewbyLady, that's a sweet layout. I love it. Lots of action in a small space. Frank53, your layout never ceases to amaze me. I am going to steal, er borrow the ceiling tile idea for a G Scale Module that I am building. It will make a great mountain scene. Marty, I always like the effects added to your pictures. Spanky, what about a '49 Chevy? CSXT John I really like that flatcar load. How did you construct it? Bruce I love the extra details on the switch tower. I think you need to get a full shot of the Torpedo though.

[NewbieLady]

Thanks, Spankybird! Coming from you, that means a lot. I feel I learned from the Master - your great scenes have been some of my biggest inspirations! :-) My next step is to acquire more people, so that I can change things up a bit now and then. With a small layout, you've gotta keep things fresh.

[spankybird]

I gotta admit when Frank started I was thinking to myself...What the heck is this guy doing?  Man it has evolved and is an awsome display of modeling.  Everytime Frank posts I see things that I steal er I mean like.    I envy his patience.  I would of nailed down loops of track by now.  I'm still in awe of the celing tile mountain cliffs and the background buildings.

Me Too - Very nice work Frank!

[spankybird]

Uh-oh, there's a bit of commotion on Main Street today. Once again the peacefulness of a quiet Sunday morning has been shattered by a careless driver. "But Officer, I just TAPPED his bumper."

NewbieLady - Welcome to the Sunday photo fun, very nice scene!

thanks for the kind comments.

I don't see anything stolen in this one Marty - and it's a keeper!:

mayeb a nice platform for that rotary beacon?

[NewbieLady]

Just built our first layout. It's small (4x8), but we're having fun. Still putting on finishing touches. Will try to post a photo or two here:
