 Starting to add tree's to the layout. These are some handmade Aspens I put together...

I like the look of those Aspens---even the bark work!! Hopefully your eyes did not stay crossed when you finished those----nice work!

Weekend Photo Fun is off to a fast start with some truly great photos from each of you so far.

Here are photos of my new (as of two days ago) P1000 F7's on their first run on my layout.

What a great looking video. I really like the idea that you are able to run very long consists. That must be one large club layout.

Nice work! I especially like how the Aspens turned out.

I'm in this week.  Trying to gear up and motivate myself to get back into scenery work after a summer off.  Here's a shot of some newer tree canopy work.  The foreground still needs some work:

Soo Bandit Scheme BLI Paragon ready to cross the bridge...

A Rix Product Modern Highway Overpass, really adds depth to any layout. For $29 dollars it was well worth it. I still need to add details, but its getting there.
