Been working on a tyco c-630 over the last couple weeks. Parents found it at an estate sale and thought they would buy it for me. I have added an athearn frame and trucks, a cal scale super detail set, antennas. I have shaved off all of the cast on details and replaced them with the cal scale stuff. I filled in the pilots and permanentaly mounted the front plow and cut off the mounting hooks. The pics show most of the details applied. I also bent some new brass handrails for it. Needed to be added are the coupler cut bars and the windshield wipers. I am in need of some air tanks as well but I think for now it looks good for now. It is in primer now and now I need to come up with a paint color for it.
Here are the pics, sorry about some of the blurry ones

Building a protolanced industrial park layout
Went to K-10 Model Trains yesterday and bought $50.00 of HO junk. Well, barrels, pallets trucks and little people that is! I all so have a new found respect for Railroaders that stage there layouts with small details like people. More of a pain than I thought it was going to be. Hard part was waiting for the glue to sit up.
This is the new spur I am working. This is the first section that I have sickened on plywood. Other areas I have worked I used 2 inch foam for the base.
1971 Plum Crazy Cuda with Bill Board Strips is not HO scale, but seems to work with the truck.Truck is by Boley and for $5.00 seemed like a good deal.
Bill and Frank is loading a Comp Prep 727 in the back of the truck for my 1971 Sub Lime Green Cuda in the for ground. Race Hemi is still on the loading dock in the crate that is being opened. Todd is going at it with the crowbar.
Jake, he is dragging a palleat in to be reused.
Looks like we need to get the weed whacker after the rails.
Next will be adding a chain link fences. Dave The Train was so kind to send me some top notch looking fences material. Thanks Dave.

Latest shot of my Barsol Chemical Truck. The decals were custom made (not by me but a graphic designer who was handsomely paid I might add). There is still much weathering to do on the trucks yet. This is one of three.
First a prototype picture....then my attempt at recreating the tanker. Again, many details to add yet.......

Some cars that I recently finished.
This is an Athearn 40' Box Car, Painted Boxcar red with Black ends and decaled with Champ Decals.
These two are McKean 40' Double Door Boxcars, painted one yellow for general service, the second is painted Pullman green and is a mail storage car for use on Passenger and Mail and Express trains. Both were lettered with Herald King Decals.
Thanks for Looking
Rick
Rule 1: This is my railroad.
Rule 2: I make the rules.
Rule 3: Illuminating discussion of prototype history, equipment and operating practices is always welcome, but in the event of visitor-perceived anacronisms, detail descrepancies or operating errors, consult RULE 1!
BM 1202 and 1225 are a couple of factory painted MDC harriman coaches. I sanded the roofs to make them smooth, added interiors and renumberd one of them. I am pretending they are 1935 lightweight "American Flyer" coaches
