Hummm, I'll have to think about them. Or maybe WIN doesn't need a slogan, lol, WC never had a slogan.
Nice, GBW was all Alco too, untill they merged with the FRV and then got bought out by the WC. Now most of the GBW Alcos are on shortlines. It's sad to see short lines like that go down the hole. Sounds like is was a nice RR though at one time. It's also nice to see one is being restored.

Alcos, I can just smell them...lol.
Humm, Route of the Pack doesn't sound to bad....
Ok LAST and FINAL map. If it isn't you can blame it on Robby. But now we picked up the old IC line to Munger, and the old IC yard just a tad east of Hawthorne, Crawford. So We have the old IC Iowa Line form Munger-Crawford. We also picked up the old GTW From Eldson Yard-Blue Island. So Now I don't need trackage Rights over the IHB, just over the BNSF. Now I will go and mess my self in with Sub Division Names and Train Names/Destinations.
I should really make a web site for this RR so I can keep track of everything! lol.
No! Websites eat up too much time! Trust me, I do it for our club, and it isn't even that great. It takes a ton of time. www.wimrc.ca
lol, I know, I was just ponderjoking....
So...what hase every one else been up to? Sawyer, I've seen some of your work on WPF, you should post some here, it looks pretty nice.
Jordan, you're busted, you think you can blame the map on me? You're the running the WIN, so I'm not liable in any way what so ever, LOL, another random joke! I figured I'd come off TRP and invade TMRP for a change! See TRP for the slogan I thought of.
I had 6 generations of EJ&E power running today, with SD38-2 665 in the J-Ball scheme, 668 in the Bicentennial scheme, a SD9, a RS3, a SW1200 in the brown paint, and a NW2 in the green over orange scheme together. I've got quite a extensive EJ&E collection, I'm sure everyone is shocked about that! Now I need to get my hands on a Baldwin in the black paint and if these ever come out, a Centercan and a chevron SD38-2. I've even got a custom built chop nosed SD18, EJ&E 852, one of the now retired former B&LE engines.
Believe me, I'm interested in creating my own website, I was a admin for CTRG and USRG before that site went downhill pretty quickly, I'd do it all again if I could! I'd also like to open up a photo gallery showcasing photos throughout the midwest, where anyone could upload them, both real and model! That's my ultimate goal for around here.

I'd love to see a pic Sawyer.
Man I hope this place doesn't die out like the last time...
Does he have a web site at all?
Tommrow I might do a photo shoot. I bought 2 new TOFC cars with trailers. But first I need to get my GP40 back in Operation. Broke the All Weather Window Off.

Repaints:
GP30
H-15-44
And a comparitive of the F7 and GP9:
I've re-done most of the scenery.
Moved the house
And added a garage:
Frieght station
Another view of the house.
Mainline out front.
Passenger station
Garage and such:
Your repaints look nice! The scenery is also nice too. I like how the tracks are like with the ground. Makes me feel like it's on old Branch line. Freight Station? What freight station?
Put this in Weekend Photo Fun already, but I'll bump here, too. I finally got around to painting some of my figures, since I kinda need conductors to keep the railroad running.
Woot, some one ACTUALLY posted progress!
Looks great, I hope to have some of my shots up. I think I might actually drag my big diorama out.

DRGW Vid is up!

Great Vids GG. I Found the DRG&W one more interesting, but that's just because that's the power I like. Don't get me wrong though, they where both interesting.
BTW: That last Clip in the DRG&W vid, at 3.13, a piece of cattel had gotten ran over, that's why they stopped...

All the painting was done by dry brushing. No air brush was used.

I figure kitbashing will be easier than buying a 500 doller kit...
Well uh, actually the Kaslo kits are only $200...
Good luck on the kitbash! Cannon & Co. is your friend...
I thought Kaslos where 500 bucks? lol.
well, looks like there's going to be alot of work on my Shell. I Need new Radiator Fans, and New Rad Grill, and the hood section might have to be replaced in order to fit the proto-type...
Check out Higball Graphics. They have a great selection of detail parts, and the pricing isn't too bad. Help keep those great small stores in business. (Whenever I order from them there's always a hand signed "Thank You" on the printed order list).
They stock most major detail parts manufacturers...
