tHank you. i reconfigured the industries last week.

[WCfan]

Saywer, looks good so far! Keep the pics commign when you get more done.

Railnut, I have an SD35 like that. Atlas Master right?

It's hard to see but there WC 2500, WCs only SD35.

I might make another Doriama. based on this shot.

I know in Wisconsin there is something like this. But Firt I need to finish my current one. This next one will be long, and might have trees, so it doesn't look like the Great Plains.

I have an Atlas Master SD35 as well....except it's the passenger SDP35 version. In my version of history the steam generator was taken out.

after eading this months Trains W&LE feature, i think the A&S will use an SD35 for interchange. The RR would use SD35s, GP40-2s, SD40-2s, and GP38s.

Well, how's this for a summer job?

Installing decoders for $25.00 a pop, lights and all.

I'm doing this through my local hobby shop. He doesn't have time to do it, so he has other people do it for him.

That's what i'll be doing at night when it's nice and cool!

 

[railroadnut675]

Nice pictures!

Hello, I'm still 12 for another month, but that counts, right? Still haven't started my ATSF shelf layout, but soon... soon...

[Wikious]

WCfan, I must applaud you on your wonderful choice of subject for those photos!

[WCfan]

Welcome Alconut! I can't wait to see pictures of progress once you start.

Wikious, thanks. We where visting relitives in Slinger. So on Saturday we decided to had up to Horicon. Alot of Stuff. When that train left we just decided to chase here back to Slinger. We could of gone one more town south to Ackerville. But my dad didn't want to. If it was my cousin we probably would of chased her farther! More picture at Slinger and Horicon At Teen Railfan Place.

[WCfan]

That vid wants to make me have a better layout....

BTW: How big is your Helix?

[railroadnut675]

I might post a video in the maybe-maybe-not-so-distant future.

[Packers#1]

Sweet video, GG. great music on it, too.

[Railfan Alex]

Great clip!

[Packers#1]

Picture time! Aorry about the quality of some, but they get across the look of what it is.

BTW: How big is your Helix?

Although not my layout, I'm pretty sure its around 6 feet wide. What you don't see is the branch line, the upper 2 track staging, or the lower 6 track staging. The mainline benchwork is coming along slowly. Theres only a few feet of track heading off the helix at the top, nothing else for the mainline.

[WCfan]

Ah, that's what I thought. I hate Helixes, yet I must have one to get the lenght of main line I want.

Opps, sorry Sawyer, I forgot to comment on your work. Looks great! Kind of reminds me of the MR project layout, the California...umm Central, Northern? I forgot already what it was called. lol.

[Packers#1]

Thank you, WCfan. IDK what layout your talking about, I just pieced together the track, then let my imagination go wild.

[WCfan]

Here let me go and find the pic. It was in one of the MR mags that they where going to redo it with Kato track.

[Packers#1]

Cool. Here's my new layout plan:

Photobucket enhanced

[WCfan]

Opps. It was the Carolina Central.
