I posted this earlier in the week. My little guy was doing videos for tech at school. He jazzed this one up a bit and asked if he could put it on WPF. So here it is.

Looks like that is going to be an excellent cityscape, Heartland.

Weekend Photo Fun
Posted by Heartland Division CB&Q on Friday, March 9, 2012 8:39 AM

Curt ... Thanks for starting WPF ... Nice scene!  ..........

Rick .... You freight cars look real!

Here is some WORK IN PROGRESS. ...  Until I install retaining walls, I have surfaces painted gray. Numerous details need to be installed. I would also like to install real trolley wires for my 50' of street car track.

I am building my downtown area, and I have 16 buildings installed. One was ready-built, a bank by WS/DPM. The rest are either kitbashed or kit-built. Size of buildings range from a 13 story building from a Bachmann kit to a single story supermarket from a City Classics kit.

I have ordered more Chooch stone walls and more Rix concrete railings like in this picture of a scene between downtown and Union Station. This will cover my gray painted surfaces.

Nice Start to the Weekend Curt!

Here are some recently completed cars!

Here is an Eastern Car Works Airslide Covered Hopper painted for American Refridgerator Transit. Co-Owned by the Missouri Pacific and the Wabash.  I have shown both sides of the car as the MP & WAB heralds are switched, with the MP Herald closest to the B end of the car. I used Oddballs Decals to finish the car.

Atlas Kaolin Tank car, painted light gray and lettered with Islington Station Products decals.

Atlas 17600 Gal Corn Syrup Tank Car, painted black and lettered with Herald King Decals.

Thanks for Looking!

Rick JMy 2 Cents

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!
