This was "officially" the last 1/87 scale model I built ( 12-18-2010 )

It was damaged during shipping to my client.... dont trust the post office to pay your Insurance claim.... or refund the money you PAID for said Insurance !

It's a Lumber loader.

More machinery please..... doesn't have to be on wheels / track's.

(stamping machine's , Lathe's , sawmill's  ECT...)

Rust...... It's a good thing !

Show me another flashback memory please.

I use to Hitch-Hike around the U.S. with The Greatful Dead,  So my "Idea" of a flashback might be different from your's.

But , how about a picture of something I built 8 year's ago for a Client.

( I dont have it anymore, so these picture's are my flashback.)

Alco RS-11 MEC 801 and 802 as they appeared in the early 1980s on my layout. Green 802 is an Atlas factory paint; it was still in the as delivered paint scheme. I painted and decalled 801 in the more recent paint colors. Not also the AMC Pacer on the road below.

1923 , AAAAAAAAHHHH...... my favorite year for Mack Truck's.

I cannibalized a window frame from a second kit, just so I could model this one with the winshield open.

Here's my DH&P SD-9. Purchased used from the Southern Pacific in 1984.
