Hit Me With Your Best Shot . . Just ONE please

Here SOUTHERN E6 No 2800 is passing over a GM&O pair of RS3s pulling some B&O woodside coaches

Great pictures.

Almost an embarrassment on this thread. But here goes.

Not a quiet neighborhood in Moon Township..

...but a favorite.

Fellas - be certain to right-click and 'open link in new window' so that the photo will become large. There are some really nice images here!

Interesting, Murph, you chose a picture that featured numerous trains... with your work, in the background. No ego demanding center-stage(a compliment).

Besides, the enjoyable pics being featured, in this thread; there's a wee bit of competition, here. Many of the layout builder thoroughbreds are rubbing shoulders... putting their best foot forward.

BTW, there's some great pictures posted, here; Mike's(CT) and Matt's, get special acknowledgement, from me.

Good job lads,

Rick

Each of the contributors here has sent in something special. My hats off to all of you for participating in something I am enjoying so immensely.

Dennis Brennan . . . . I loved your photo so much and I loved your layout so much that I have tried to include many of those ideas in the creation of the Munoz Lines. So rarely do we see a road/highway going completely under an overpass and your scene is fabulous. Dennis' book of "How To" has become my bible. No matter how my work turns out, Dennis has been an amazing source that has turned me on to so many great modeling ideas.

There are so many craftspeople and masters contributing to this thread that it is impossible to acknowledge them all. My hobby efforts are better thanks to all of you.

Erie Lackawanna Highballing down the line...

I know Allan is looking closely at these great photos to include in the magazine. We have such talent on the Forum. Don

I would like to think my best shot is yet to be taken.  At least I hope that is the case! Bo

One more. Tap the picture for a bigger view. Don

Coming in late to the party, and after so many wonderful shots already.

Don...I really like the wet pavement scene and how you created it (I read all of your posts!).  By the way, if one will right click on the picture and then click on "open link in new window", a full page shot will occur much larger than just clicking on the picture..

Alan

you have my vote sir!!!!

Steamer, thanks!  I haven't taken many what I call "good shots", but of the photos I've taken, this is one of my favorites.  I bet your a Pennsy fan!!  Bo

mike.caruso, those children are dangerously close to the tracks!!

not at all...can't stand that red keystone.....

The photos are wonderful.

Please keep it to one photo.

THE best photo.

Marker:

THat's an awesome shot. It raises questions. Is that 2-rail track intersecting/interchanging with 3-rail? And is that a Model Tech Studios "County Seat" station in the background?

Gotta have one of the Blue Comet.

Eliot,

Thanks for the kind words. It means a lot. 

Dennis

Dennis, that is one wonderful shot!!  It looks so realistic.

Larry

Just kidding... Drove by this today and had to take a pic for future inspiration.

WEAVER PRR L1 on the local

Matt - The answers are yes and yes.

Great thread and photos!  I don't have a great photo but one that shows a busy part of my layout.  

Great subject and pictures. I just decided to set this picture as my computer back drop....maybe it will inspire me to get off my keester and back to work on all the flat space. Have done almost nothing to it in about a year.

Steve

Me, too.  Seen it before and I've always loved this one . . .

Best of my 1980's era layout in Dallas, PA.

I'm working on re-creating the scene on today's layout.

Me too.There's something relaxed and peaceful about that scene, something familiar, like we have seen it before - or felt it before - in real-life somewhere, at sometime. The place has atmosphere, IMHO.

I find seeing all that available plywood acerage inspiring, and I can smell the fragrance of all that wood. It makes me want to start plopping down some track (I can hear it hitting the plywood, now) sections and pulling out some buildings. What an opportunity!
I'll bet, once you start and get your hands on that treasure, you'll keep on going and enjoy yourself.
