I'm still building on my layout and I'm going through withdrawls. I have the blue desert going on over here.
Inspire me with the best pic you have of your layout!
Lets see it! Don't be shy!
I hope this helps you until you get your next railroad 'fix'. It's not my layout - it belongs to a good friend of mine. I hope you enjoy.

Research; it's not just for geeks.
I am torn between two, so I hope I can be forgiven for showing both and letting you decide. Obviously, they have been doctored by adding skies.
Not exactly a layout pic, but my favorite scene.

Building the Rock Ridge Railroad with the slowest construction crew west of the Pecos.
Here's mine. It's still temporary scenery, but it came out good.

Great stuff guys! Everything from snake oil salesmen to huge trestles, and everything in between! This is putting me in the mood to press on!
Oh, and selector, I like them both, but I think the first one has the edge!
Trainmanty, great detail shot!
I'm saving my best for a magazine article, but I like these two:
Modeling the Rio Grande Southern First District circa 1938-1946 in HOn3.
This is one of my favorite pictures, compare with Model Railroader Nov. 85

Phillip,
Here's another shot from my friends' layout.
I guess this would be one of my favorites , the yards lite up at night and the TMI shops in the background.

I'd go with this one, a BLI Hudson pulling a short freight:
It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.

You ain't just whistling dixie! I'm diggin' on this!
Okay, how about this: A LV caboose brings up the rear of a short local. This is a shot from a few years ago, when I did a little scenery, instead of track work.
With so many to choose from.......here are a few.
I'll jump in with a shot of Railfan Park in the town of Adobe Flat.

PS I'm with Phillip. I like selector's first shot better.
Life is simple - eat, drink, play with trains!
Go Big Red!

Man! You guys are awesome! You all been hiding this stuff! Look at the work presented here! Now I've got to go lay some more track so I can move to getting rid of the "Blue Desert".
Keep 'em comin'!
My problem is that I don't really consider myself a very good photographer, but here's a few shots of the Yuba River Sub that I think are relatively passable.

From my old layout FACE CREEK AND WICHITA. I love this shot, hope you like it to, HO in 10x13 room. Dismantled and sold off in 2006.
This (was) Flint, KS MP 32.5 on the FCW. The siding served a fuel supply, propane company and scratchbuilt lumber yard (not pictured). Backdrop was a "foliage cluster stamp" and shades of green paint.

Chuck, your "/" is to the left, and outside, of your last brackets.
Here are two of mine:

Most of this was pink, white or wood just a couple of weeks ago. There's still hope, even if it seems like you've been stuck in a boring spot visually for awhile. I've been waiting since I returned to college to get things like this, but finally got a chance to get this basic scenery in place recently.

Here's a couple.
