Mr. Beasley, the wood is some leftover cedar 1x3's and 2x2's the top is some homasote with cork already laminated to it. I think it is used for bulletin boards. Anyway I used it to save on roadbed as the whole layout will be industruial with tracks everywhere.
P.S. the cobblestones between the rails look great!
I only have one photo this week, my little Bachmann Spectrum 4-4-0 coming down the grade through an area I've yet to finish..

Lookin' good, Ty, even if it's someone else's engine. Your ground surface is great, and it blends well up to the ballast.
Chad - are you using expensive wood for the benchwork? I like the idea of pre-drilling the holes - good advance planning.
Jeffrey - I love the first black-and-white. Even though color is more what the eye sees, B/W can often display what the mind sees. In this case, an F7 with a blazing headlight puts me right back in the 1950's. And, I liked Ike.
I've been working on the trolley stop on Saint Anne Street, where the good folk of Moose Bay go to do their shopping. Here's the street in front of the Post Office:
Rotate your mind 90 degrees, and this is the same block from across the tracks, with the trolley just pulling in:
Finally, I took this shot while standing on the tracks. Yeah, I know the trolley is going to stop, so I had no fear. Of course, when you're 87 times the size of the trolley, it gives you a bit more bravado:
It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.
I came up with these two when I wanted to see how the pics would like in B&W.
How many Athearn F7's can be run on the EZ-Command? I count five.
These pics are of an area I'm working on now.

Nice work guys! Well I don't have much to contribute. I haven't done much because of locomotive problems, but there fixed now. But my next project will be super elevating a curve on my layout. Well, half a curve. Pictures to come soon.

I already showed this on it's own thread. I don't have many pictures to show, so I'll show them again. This is a restoration project from my junk bin. They're not done yet, but they're getting there.

After:
I took a few photos of my friend's 70 tonner on my layout. I also forested a few feet on my pass; but I haven't downloaded the photos from the camera yet; they will be up at latest, tomorrow afternoon.
Enjoy!
I guess I'll start the wpf this week since it's after 6 on friday. This week I have pics of the benchwork for my new HO shelf layout. First a pic of the bench with some structures and equipment on it.
Here's a veiw of the underside with wiring holes predrilled.
And finally a veiw through the rolling mill I kind of liked.
