Thank you, TF!

Yes that does look like "Sun flare" or refraction of some sort. Now all I have to do is prevent the girders from casting shadows on the clouds Hmm

Cheers, Ed

Interesting picture Ed. I don't know if you noticed but your flash reflection on the wall looks like an obscured by clouds Sun in the sky. Unless that's the way it really is. Regardless I really like that bridge.

Nice float Bridge Peter

The center pier has yet to be added on this double Warren truss Bridge.

Show me anything on your Railroad or another Bridge.

Show me a house-car (boxcar/reefer/etc.) with an open door, please

.

I glue all my freight car doors shut, so there are not any pictures of STRATTON & GILLETTE equipment with doors open.

.

This picture is from the Country Roads model railroad group's portable layout.

.

.

Show me another boxcar (refrigerated, ventialated, normal, whatever) with an open door.

Show me a scene with a vehicle on an unpaved road. Two extra points if it is a "red dirt road", because that is the song playing on my iTunes right now!

Anybody got another shot of a diesel and a steam engine together .

.

I know this is not exactly what you meant.

.

This is a scene on the North Georgia Modu-Rails group's portable layout. It is a neat scene with a "live steam" layout in a rail park. There is a diesel on the live steam track and an old rusty steam locomotive in the park.

.

I love the "tunnel" made out of a passenger car.

There is a crossing way in the back of this scene on the N scale NORFOLK STRATTON sectional layout I built for Scale Rails of Southwest Florida over 20 years ago.
