I don't have anything from my home layout this week, but I do have a couple of pictures I took last November at the Museum of Aviation, Warner Robins, Ga. The modular club I'm a member of set up it's large HO scale layout, plus the smaller N scale. The event was titled 'Planes and Trains'.
In the photo below you can see the very small O scale setup which we hope to, at least, triple in size this year. Also, the area most popular with visiting toddlers (and parents) is the 'ride-able' setup near the bottom of this picture.

Excellent work so far!
I don't have real progress to show. In fact, my layout has gone backwards:
I've torn down the old layout in preparation for a new one. I'm hoping to begin on benchwork soon.

They look very nice Mike, I too like the light weathering touch. Very nicely done.
As a follow on to last week, I've put together a short video of the same Atlas S-2 (Tsunami equipped) on YouTube. If you have some time to kill, check it out (it's even HD).
1000 pardons if you've already seen this!
I'm trying to model 1956, not live in it.
Great work, Mike. I love your "subtle" touch. Those locos look used but not abused.
Building an old Roundhouse 2-8-0 kit but not far enough along to photograph. Still cleaning up the castings.
However, a buddy did give me a nice Roadway rig for the layout. Had to "dirty" it just a bit.

Since nobody has started this yet I guess I will. Couple projects I just finished this week.
The gp-38 is an undecorated atlas model. Disassembled the whole thing, cleaned, lubed and tested. Then I added a NCE decoder and added front and rear led lights. On the outside I added the long hood bell, plow and ditch lights. I was missing the one end railing so I bent new ones from brass rod. Decals were from shell scale that I found on ebay. Then I drybushed the rust and silver colors for contrast.
Drybrushed the weathering on the trucks and fuel tank and finished off this rs-3
alco's forever!!!!! Majoring in HO scale Minorig in O scale:)
