Contrary to popular belief, I am still alive, and I am back to being as normal as I ever get. So, LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, I welcome you to Weathering Wednesday (WW) March 19, 2025 Edition!!! You will be dazzled by dirty engines and rolling stock! You will be amazed by schmutzed-up structures and scenery! So, grab your popcorn, sit back and….NO! Join in the fun and post your weathered projects.
I and the rest of the WW followers always look forward to seeing your artistry and learning from descriptions of the methods that you used to achieve your results.
But first, here are the forum ground rules:
- Have fun and enjoy!

I will begin this week’s festivities with a retrospective of the still, work-in-progress model of the PRR’s J Tower. The assembly, painting and weathering were done by Ms. Zora Maya Keith, a GREATLY valued member of the Great Northeastern Railway’s (GNR) Assembly, Painting and Weathering Department and other stuff. The interior and brass railings for the outside stairs (not yet added in the photos below) were constructed and installed by yours, truly, Randy Harrison. Still to be done is the interior lighting.
So, it is now time for you all to show us your weathering artistry as well as how you achieved yours results.
