Atlas viaduct.  Top portion from six sets.  I got my Scherzer rolling lift bridge when in came from AHM but I think Atlas still catalogs it under another brand.

Would you believe this is TWO MILES LONG!?!?!?  Oh well, selective compression and all that...

Show me something that uses two or more of a common kit.

Thanks George, I just did a uninstall/install of firefox and I'll do a virus scan next.  Just for kicks I'm going to put the words 'check your credit score' here to see what happens.

For everyone else the last request was for a depot scene.

Now back to your regularly schedule programming.

Good grief.  When I did the 'edit' the word 'requested' wasn't a link anymore but the phrase 'check your credit score' was.

Jarrell

Jarrell, those "links" sound a bit off, could there be a bug Alien in your Firefox? Maybe time to do an update and virus scan. Dead

I don't mean to hijack this thread for a conversation on odd behavior of web browsers.  It seems the problem is confined to Firefox.

Anyway, my request is for a depot scene!

Bob K I had no idea the thread would last this long.  I thought a few months at best.

Here's a depot scene as requested..

Show me another depot scene.

(edit)

Huh... pardon me for interrupting but when I wrote the word 'requested' above I did NOT make a link out of it.  But when I hit the 'post' button and the finished message came up, complete with photo, the word IS a link.  Upon hovering my mouse pointer above the word a small pop up appeared advertising 'check your credit score'  I did not click on the word.  I'm using Firefox,  is anyone else seeing this?

It looks like it only does it when I use Firefox.  I just switched back to Opera browser and the link is not visible.

Good grief.  When I did the 'edit' the word 'requested' wasn't a link anymore but the phrase 'check your credit score' was.

Not so messy, but the best I can do at short notice:

Photo taken while the "Pasture Scene" was under construction on the BRVRR layout. There is a short photo essay of the process on the How'd You Do That? page on my website. Just click on the thumbnail of the scene.

How about a nice depot scene.
