After all these years, I have finally gotten this awesome model set up with a Kadee and a bit of weathering. I may pull the plugs for the markers at some point. I popped a Lionel M1a chip in it for better sounds. Maybe I'll film a few clips tomorrow night but in the meantime i just took a bunch of quick shots with my iPad.

Awe-inspiring . . . and immensely depressing.

I think I'll just burn my layout.

I get the point here, it does seem to get demoralizing when you see the amazing work of others and can't see how other people could possibly have the same reaction when looking at your layout, huh?

Thanks for sharing Norm,  your ability to put scenes together, weather everything and have it all look like a place I drove by  25 or 30 years ago is truly impressive.    The spalling concrete on that loading dock and the telephone poles painted up 8 feet from the ground !!!!   Is that an old "cobblestone" street ?? 

Norm;

Wow is right. While I agree that the roundhouse shots are incredible, my personal favorite is the second pic - you can just see yourself walking down the street and seeing the train pass by. All the more amazing that these were taken with an iPad. I am also depressed as I know I have nowhere the level of skill to approach the beautiful level of artistry and detail of your layout. Looking forward to a video.

Again, Norm, job well done.  I can almost smell the cinders.  Thanks for all the pics..

Makes me want to head up to Mt Washington and take the steam driven Cog rail to the top.  The steamer only makes the first run of the day.  The remaining runs are done with a Mt Washington Railroad designed biodiesel engine.  It's a fast clean ride, but not the fun of the steamer.
