 Another great weekend of posts. I look forward to this thread every weekend. Smile

Found this scale drawing of the Colton station and thought it would be a fun scratch build even though I don't have space for it.

For some reason I can't get the pic to show posting from my phone. I must be doing something wrong. Tongue Tied

Rick- Great work as always. You get some sharp lines! What kind of masking taape do you use?

Ringo,

I use some cheap low tack painters tape for big areas but where I am doing color separations I use Tamiya Masking Tape, I have a couple of different sizes depending on how I am doing the color separations.

Rule 1: This is my railroad.

Rule 2: I make the rules.

Rule 3: Illuminating discussion of prototype history, equipment and operating practices is always welcome, but in the event of visitor-perceived anacronisms, detail descrepancies or operating errors, consult RULE 1!

David: I am loving the scenes on your layout. Thank you again for sharing these.

Garry: I hope you get your computer issues resolved. Thank you for checking in.

Dave: That depot is looking incredible. That is a great project.

Rick: I have also had excellent results with Tamiya masking tape. It is the brand I can get the most consistently good results with.

Thanks again to all the contributors. See you next weekend.

Living the dream.
