It's getting close to U.S. Thanksgiving, so how about showing something you are thankful for?

A pity the rules of this thread won't allow me to a prototype photo of her-in -doors. Bow LaughLaugh

To those who celebrate Thanksgiving have a good one.

Cheers, the Bear.

Whats a bloody nose?

 

 

 

Michael, really?Huh?

 

Knowing you are one of the regulars, and in Colorado and may have seen these, I'm assuming you asked this more for the newer folks here,,,,,,,,,,,,,So here is a photo definition of "bloody nose"

I dont model the SP, or cotton belt, so I have no models to show for it

Some of the photos are either distored or they run out of the "box", so you can only see the left side of the picture.  I am not a fan of te new forum softwareNo

Now, what was the last requestTongue Tied

Ah, here it is Idea Show me something blue

 

 

 

Kyle,

I don't know what you are viewing them on, or how you have, your screen set, but, they come in perfect, for me. Actually, I believe, the photos, come in better and clearer,than before, on my screen, anyway! I am on a ACER, 15.4'' WXGA wide CrystalBrite TFT LCD.

Cheers, Drinks

What I am seeing is the photo is not running over, but the text with the photo runs beyond the margin on some photos. I am running IE 8

Kyle,

What is your computer monitor's resolution set at?  If you have to scrool from side to side to see the complete text or image, you may want to adjust your resolution.  As an example, on my HP laptop, the resolution is at 1366 X 768.  Meanwhile, show us a covered bridge was the current request.

Well, here we go with another forum format, hope it works better than last years "improved" version. I thought we were up to 4 pages on this thread, are there more replies per page??

The last request was something green, MEC 671 A-B F3 in Pine Green

Show me something red

Here is Silver Fountain, kitbashed from a Walthers Budd observation.

What train did the Silver Fountain run in?  The Twin Cities Zephyr?

If I recall correctly, it was originally used on the Ak-Sar-Ben Zephyr. There were 4 cars of this type, and they were on several trains. These cars were commonly used on the Kansas CIty Zephyr during its final years of service. They had parlor car seats in the rear and a 1/2 of a dining car in the front end.

My brass kitbash.  The loco started out as a junker PFM Santa Fe 3800 series 2-10-2 that I bought for a smile at a swap meet about 10 years ago.  With some bashing, sawing, soldering, epoxying and a bunch of new detail parts I was able to turn it into a reasonable facsimile of a Rio Grande F-81 1400 series 2-10-2.  It was a fun project.
