Allen, that looks really good. I like all of the crossovers. Gives it a sense of busyness.

Show me your first bridge kit.
Boy Ken, that made stop and think.
Guess one of the first buildings was in this picture.
I bought it of E Bay, it was a Ford (Yuck) that I was going to make in to a Dodge Dealership.
First building I built, I think it was a Pinskiee (sorry about the spelling) It was a kit you kit bash. I knew I was over my head when I read "After All We Are Modelers Right". Don't seem to have any pictures of it.
I started getting better and did some Cornerstone Kits and they tuned out OK. Then I got into DMP.
The young man is a friend of my son Crisp
Most of my buildings have been packed away waiting for a few years on me to build a Adult looking layout.
Like my K-10 Mining addition, like this.
Show me when you started getting more advanced

Not only can I not see it I also can not hear it.
Did you try holding it up to your ear??
This complex was the very first thing I built for my current layout. It is mounted on a board so I was able to work on it inside the house then move it to the layout.

Show me a speeder please.
A couple at the old Blackwood mine. DJ.
Show me a family scene.
In spite of my handle, this little outside frame 0-4-0 is my favorite:
It's nearly as old as me, but it runs much better than I do (thanks to a new can motor from the motorman - MR advertiser). It didn't run at all with the original motor - and thus engendered a favorite quote from my wife: "You paid how much, and it doesn't even run?!" A couple of weeks later I had it running and she told me that she doubted that I could fix it. It's not that she thinks I lack skill, but she figured it was too far gone. That's one thing that old brass locos and Corvettes have in common: In the right hands they can always be restored.
It's rare to find an outside frame loco in HO standard gauge, so I was thrilled to get this one.
Show me romance.
Since Roger didn't request anything I'll go back to Chads request.
Here are my 'oldest' and 'newest' locomotives side by side for their official portrait.
Show me your favorite locomotive.
Not much to see yet but here's the west yard lead and ladder track in the as yet un-named yard on the new Great Eastern Railway.

Modeling CNR in the 50's
Here's a slightly modified Athearn BB caboose. I installed window glass, lighted the interior and weathered it. Not a great deal of modification but enough for now.
How about another modified caboose?
I was detail painting this ex-GN GP20 (white handrail ends and step edges, working from a photo of a sister unit), then I noticed that the blue began to fade for some reason (I think I had an open container of ispyrol alcohol in the room somewhere). After a bit of playing with washes and such, I got the faded blue evened out
Show me a modified caboose
Vincent
Wants: 1. high-quality, sound equipped, SD40-2s, C636s, C30-7s, and F-units in BN. As for ones that don't cost an arm and a leg, that's out of the question....

Got June 2012 Setup now...
Here are the rules:
In this thread a person asks to see something, related to model railroading of course, and the first person to respond by posting a picture that contains what the person asks for then immediately says "Show Me Something"..................That person can ask to see, for example, a certain color.. or a shape such as something round or square. They could ask to see something patriotic, or something angry or happy or sad. They may ask to see something educational or inspiring or scary. The request should be one word, such as "Show Me Something Humorous"Participants in the thread should give others a chance to join in. For instance, let several requests/replies go by before jumping back in after you've participated UNLESS the thread drops off the first or second page and you'd like to bring it back. In that case it would be fine to answer again.Please..., NO LINKS to a picture on another website somewhere. The answer MUST be posted in your reply. If a participant does that it should be ignored and another person can reply. There may be times when two or more people reply at the same time. Any reply should be done to the FIRST person.
Due to the lack of momentum, we should be a little lighter on the 1-hour rule this time.
Are we going to run this another month or start a June issue??
