Here you are, two different locomotives, a Fairbanks Morse Trainmaster and an FM H16-44 working together on a coal train.  Show me a train emerging from a tunnel.

27 hours with no modern road crossing, and almost falling off forum page 1

This is an in progress photo of Greenvale Village. Still a lot of scenery and detail to go. I Photoshopped a blue "sky" background to elimimate the cluttered real background.

Show me the newest thing on your layout

Rich is too fast for me. The request is a turntable please show one as he requested.

Please excuse me while I show this photo to Ken.

Ken .... Here is a similar machine I scratch built for my coke oven. It is based on one the the Steel Making book by Dean Fritag. (The ugly crane is from a European kit, and it is to clean up spills.)

Show me something scracthbuilt

Here is something I scratch built to go with my Walthers coke ovens: a guide car (to guide the hot coke, being pushed out of the oven, into a waiting quencher car);  and a door car, which propels both itself and the guide car.  The door car latches onto a coke oven door and lifts it away before a push, then restores it afterward.

Needless to say, I still need to paint and weather these things.

Show me some more scratchbuilt or kitbashed stuff.

Since it has been almost a day.  I will show off my newest project finished...a hopper lettered for the Model railroader Turtle Creek Central.

Show me another project inspired by a model railroader project.

(My Model Railroad, My Rules) 

These are the opinions of an under 35 , from the east end of, and modeling, the same section of the Wheeling and Lake Erie railway.  As well as a freelanced road (Austinville and Dynamite City railroad).
