Beautiful consistancy... and did you notice that very little rolling stock was displayed. And no locos, I believe. Thanks for sharing!

Scott and all, Thanks for the kind words! Scott, the mud looks like mud because it IS mud. Stucco patch tinted grey and just applied, still wet. I use WS fine grey ballast. Some viewers of this scene thought the colors were too vivid, esp. the blue water. There is not a drop of blue paint...

Hi all, Only one train forum that I have found replies quicker than this one. I'm back teaching music as school has started up and I'm sitting around waiting for students. Perhaps you'd care to look at some pics of mine; Or even this video which...

Well, you've requested more pics and I keep building 'em and snapping 'em... Thanks for taking a peek!

Hello Gentlemen…. I’ve been feeling a little guilty about having the summers “off”… as a teacher and musician, it is very nice to work on something else (trains) and recharge the batteries. The only thing is, I’ve been feeling guilty about having wide open blocks of time to model, takes pics...

Andrew, She found them in the attic of her old house. 10 bucks each? 500 for all three? Can anyone ballpark these? Thanks for the responses so far. Kyle

Hi guys, Been a while... I'm sure there is a forum just for this, but forgive me for posting it here. My neighbor showed me these and I thought I'd get an appraisal for her from the forum. Junk? More pics of them here; engineerkyle/donna - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting...

Russ, I cannot tie this into the main layout. Thanks for the good ideas, guys.

Thanks guys... I think that's Gene Kelly, not Bingo.

Hi Guys, hamr Well, things seem to be slowing down this summer... so I thought I'd take on a little project for my layout. This little "L" is to sit on top of a corner of my existing layout. It will hide some mainline radii as the original track will disappear into tunnel portals and go...

Here's mine, Oh Wayne, I apologize for being a little curt with you. Your suggestion for posts to support the porch on the Gaines Cannery was a good one. The thing is, when I'm done I'm done. Sorry... PM me if you'd like a more detailed explanation of my mindset at the time. :eek:

It's been quite a while (relatively speaking) since I last posted a video. Click on the link below to see a new one. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8166982970312975743&hl=en Thanks for taking a peek.

Harold and all, I may have found a new material that may be the "Beat All" for long grass. :thumb: If you look at the weather stripping on the edges of some screen doors and windows you may find a length of material that is meant to insulate. It is made up of dense woven threads, each...

Thanks, Wayne.

And FINALLY. Here she is on the layout. I had to freshen up the surrounding area of course... including the addition of U.S. Ice. Thanks for looking in, and all the interest and kind words...

Hi Crew, As promised, here's it is finished. Now to plant it on the layout. Thanks for taking a peek! Kyle

"Gatorboard" as I call it is that rigid posterboard with the 3/16" foam core. Thanks for the kind words fellas, now if I could just win of those stupid contests. :cry: :curse:sign1

Hi all, :wave: I can't seem to get enough scratchbuilding! This next project will be something a little different for me. It is not a heavy/chemical industry facility, but an old depot I found in Gaines MI. A friend thought it was a WWI era cannery, perhaps... What's more, this will be my...

Nothing like some model railroad photos on Father’s Day… Here are some hard working men doing dangerous work. I’ll bet they are dads. The AC Storage Tanks are done, and here is how they look on the layout. CHEERS!

This project still is not done. Unlike all my previous pieces where I would steam ahead, not resting until finished, I am actually “putzing” on this one. All I've got to do now is add the ladders and hoses, paint some details, add some figures, wire it, weather it some more and...
