Jarrell
Gidday All, Acela026, I like the effect.
Anyhow, "Perishable into the setting sun".
How about showing me some maintenance of way equipment please.
Cheers, the Bear.
"One difference between pessimists and optimists is that while pessimists are more often right, optimists have far more fun."
I really like how you made the engine stand still and moved the layout under it very quickly to give the illusion of movement.

Showme fell to page 3 during the shutdown ; time for a bump
No Alco Big Boy, but instead, Baldwin's biggest and best, a hunky 2-8-8-4. Actually, as far as tractive effort, you could call these M-3/4's a "Bigger Boy", LOL!
Show me some mid-train helpers.

Tom View my layout photos! http://s299.photobucket.com/albums/mm310/TWhite-014/Rio%20Grande%20Yuba%20River%20Sub One can NEVER have too many Articulateds!
Not quite a big boy, but our shortlines newest addition, a C420 we saved from the scrapper
Pretty sure no one has asked for a 30 car train of Tyco Old Dutch Hoppers!
Show me anything you want. Would like to see some Big Boy action!
I know its very late for this but; here is a park just for rail fanning.
Just to keep it going!! Show me something you been wanting to show but nobody's asked for yet.
Thank you very much George, I appreciate the Pass!I will give a Detailing Double Feature.
This is an IC&E Unit that I detailed out as a Former CP Unit, however it's known as 'April Fools' as I added the CP markings representing their takeover. It has the Canadian Cab Bell, and other detailing I enjoy doing.
This is an Amtrak Dash8-32BWH that I modified the pilot to be able to pepprt it with all the MU, & HP receptacles they have, & other detailing, it is not exactly like the prototype, but I will be making anoter as I damaged the cab & you can see it a little bit here.
Please Show Me Anything You Customized!!!
EDIT: Sorry, I was late..
Ken's Got it: Looking for a Park
Iron Horse Park.
Show me another park
ChadLRyanOhhh, I so have that, but I already played, someone, anyone, can really enjoy this one!
It has been a day and no one else has something , so go for it, Chad. Let's keep it moving along!!
Quote from George:
"Show me a locomotive, freignt or passenger car that you kitbashed to better match the prototype"
Ohhh, I so have that, but I already played, someone, anyone, can really enjoy this one!
Hey, Thanks again Jarrell, for a great thread!A Tremendous THANKS!!! to all the participants & Viewers!!!
There has been some exceptional modelling, creativity, & talent shown here, it's in a class by itself!I am amazed every day, when I look at the work shown here!And if you are reading this you know who you are, Thank you!!!
And now, Back to, Goerge's Request;
Show me a locomotive, freignt or passenger car that you kitbashed to better match the prototype
An Athearn / Chuck;s Chop Shop U-18B, MEC 404, that I made almost 20 years beofre Intermountain came out with their U-18
If i understand correctly, this maybe a good example.An RTA Kato & an Amtrak F40PH, became Chi-Towns Metra units.These are embarassing as they are early units when I was still learning, wrong colors, bad weathering, & not really finished with all the parts. At the time I was pretty happy though.Now we can buy the factory ones in a few weeks!
Please Show Me Something You Modeled, Before it Became an 'Available From Factory' Unit!!!
Something I no longer use? I built a new layout, switching the theme from the forest-products region of East Texas to a seaport on the Texas coast. I no long have any use for pulpwood cars. I built one Santa Fe FT-V 53' pulpwood rack car from two 50' flats bashed together, Precision Masters ends and a scratchbuilt dihedral deck.
Prototype photo at Conroe TX ca. 1980.
Atlas GSC pulpwood rack modified to more closely represent a Santa Fe FT-6.
Since I cannot use these, I am trying to dispoise of them. (hint)
Show me something you wanted, you made out of something you didn't care so much about the way you got it.
Something unusual? A hand laid stub end turnout I did 25 years ago now long gone:
Show me something you made that you no longer use.
In my previous layouts, I was unhappy with the ground cover, having a much too uniform look for my taste. When I built a narrow gauge layout some years back, I tried a different technique, using Heki Flor mat ripped into pieces and applying long fibers of yellow static grass to simulate an area covered with grass and weeds. Turned out better than I expected it!
The layout has been sold some time ago.
Show me something unusual on a layout.
This is my worst mistake - my first layout. Constantly ducking in and out of the pit in the center,switches that couldn't be reached from anywhere,bad wiring,you name it. Also in an addition on the back of the house that I don't heat in the winter. It was geting pretty close to done when I tore it down and started over in the basement,but I'm glad I built it...I learned a lot from that mistake.\
Show me something that worked out better than you expected.
Mike
Think I will pick up with the long gone. What got me started.This stated it.
While looking for HO scale trees I found this.
Cheap Life Like train set.
Then it keep going and going.
And going
And Going
I hope there is never ending.
Show me your worst mistake. I showed you mine, green outdoor carpet.

Lake Bob, all well and good, but which is the diner? I see a 7-11, radio station, gas station, trucking business, motel, and station.
Bob, all well and good, but which is the diner?
I see a 7-11, radio station, gas station, trucking business, motel, and station.
I spotted it easily enough; it's just beyond the gas station - a pre-fab stainless steel diner building popular in the mid-20th century. There are still a few of them around.
Phil, I'm not a rocket scientist; they are my students.
Ollevon asked for a diner or restaurant near the tracks.
Pictured is an area of the layout I've been working on this hot summer. Because of the heat and humidity my wife says I need to stay inside. I can't ague with that idea.
Let's see some snow
