Show me something else that says summer!

The model railroad "thing" that enthuses me currently is my paint and detail shop up and running.

"What If ... " paint scheme on BN 406 awaiting a trip to the detailing shop.

Hi  Arras88, you do excellent work!  The bridge needs weathering is about the only thing I see that would help the scene.

You forgot to make a request so we'll give you a little time to do that.

Love your work!  :)

Hi,

It's hard to be a modeler of US railway in Europe. I took some pictures of my first finished module. I hope it shows american style a bit :)

What is your opinion ? Be honest please :)

G Paine,

Mighty nice scratch building work.

I should have given credit to Fred Overkamp, one of volunteers at the museum. It is designed from a house he used to live in in RI that was built in the late 1700s or early 1800s. Unfortunately for us, he has taken a second retirement out in Utah

That is a tough one, but here goes. The parsonage at the church on the Boothbay RR Village layout is totally scratch built including the windows

Show me something that you have not posted before and you are proud of

...and now back to our regular programing, we're looking for a father & family activity.


How's this?


He's 17 now, and still likes to run trains with his Dad,(Me) What else could you ask for? 

In light of the day, let's see more Father & Family pics Big Smile

Thanks Phil,

My 2-6-0 has the motor in the cab so it's not the same one. Having a small layout, I like small locos and the short cars. I use the old Roundhouse Overton cars, but that one is much shorter so I might try bashing one out of a spare roundhouse one I have.

Cheers

I've been meaning to say how much I like your trains on this bridge Phil. If that brass loco is a little 2-6-0 I've got one that needs a little mechanical work. It's a great little loco. I've alos got the two Lil Oscar and Piker coaches. What is the 2 bogie coach?

cheers

from Oz

Alan J

Thanks Alan.

The brass loco is a Far East Distributors mogul with the motor in the tender.  I installed a can motor and NWSL greabox and U-joint drive shaft.  It works pretty well.  I'm not sure of the kit I used for the longer car, but I think it was an old LaBelle kit.  Here are a couple of under construction photos:
