Very good work.
I know what effort and time that project takes.

Scenery? Cheater! We don't need no stinkin' scenery..............
Sorry Clem. Couldn't help myself. Looking great from here!
Someday I'll start. I hope it looks half this good!
Ok Clem, now that you have given everyone heart burn just thinking about when they get there! GREAT WORK!
Couple more photos
This mountain comes apart in three main sections, I didn't use any plaster, I did use fusion fiber on the flat areas and the jeep trail. The coal mine is a K&P Brick kit, built and painted by Sasquatch a D3R member. The Korber power plant came from a forum member in St. Louis. The large smokestack is a Altoona piece painted by D3R member Trainwreck Bob ( I don't like paint,glue, or plaster). I did paint the mountain but I did it in garage where I could spill and splash to my content. Pretty much splashed it on with disposable brushes. Paint is the little sample jars from Home Depot. When I was done painting I put the mountain back in the basement, then gathered up the plastic sheets, brushes ,paint jars , sticks and scrap foam and put in big trash bag. Some touch up painting I did have to do on the layout.

Very impressive Clem. Beautiful.
CLEM….INCREDIBLE build.I see your mind works on a grand scale.We would love to see some video of your trains running WOW-Nick
Wonderful technique and look, very impressive.
That looks great Clem. I see what you meant about a lot of pictures.
I have to get back to working on mine. I got a good start, but fizzled out. 
Very nice work. Looks great. I would only suggest that you add a sprinkling of grass, shrubs and other colors (via dry brush) on the rocks for additional realism.
So if I poste here (above) how in the world did I forget this?
Nice work Clem! (again) 
Joe.... some of my mountains have a full size foam sheet footprint of the mountain(the strongest for moving), then others with a track under it are seperate pieces. Some scenery sections are 8X2 feet. That particular section I think is three sections, from tear out to what you see is 30 days.
Very nicely done Clem !!!!!
