Nice work everyone!
Nothing new from me, so I'll post an older shot:
We are off to a good start, I hope everyone is looking forward to a good Memorial Day weekend. The cool foggy drizzle on the Maine coast seems to have finally broken and we are looking forward to a sunny warm weekend!!
This week I completed a garage for a scene on the Boothaby Railway Village HO scale layout. The garage is a Branchline kit and the car is a 1948 Ford by Alloy Forms
The Yellow House scene still needs some work - more scenery, bushes and maybe someone mowing the lawn. The house was scratch built by Fred Overkamp, another volunteer at the museum. He has left us for a second (or third??) retirement in southern Utah; I have been working on the scenery
The museum opens tomorrow for weekends only until mid-june, then daily for the summerhttp://www.railwayvillage.org/

No one has started off this weekend, so I will start it off with cars that were finished this week.This is an IMRC 50' PS1 Boxcar, substituted a DW 10' Plug Door for the kit doors, added extended couplers for a cushion car. Lettered the car with Herald King Decals.This is an IMRC 1937 40' 10' Inside Height AAR Boxcar, lettered with Highball Graphics decals.This is a Branchline 50' Berwick Boxcar, substituted a Diagonal Panel Roof for the X Panel that came with the kit. Lettered with Highball Graphics decals. (Did two cars as each decal set has the decals to do two cars).Thanks for looking!
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!
