I just posted a new chapter to my blog. It covers an interesting 3-rail diesel conversion and a new train order signal that is being worked.

I too admire the early FM offerings...yours is a beauty!

Thank you grandmaster for sharing your wisdom with us. 
Just finished looking through your blog. Really excellent modeling, great "how-tos". Thanks for sharing.
Bob
Gene, Are you going to manufacture the FM?

Hi Gene. Very nice photo.
I've followed your exploits for some time. Excellent modeling and photography. Hard to tell whether it's a model, especially when photographed outdoors on well-done track work.
Keep us posted on the Train order board. That looks like it's going to be a very nice item.
The FM diesel was photographed by Lee Turner who built it. It is very nice after a bunch of rework.
Outside photography is the best for creating shadows and colour rendering. Finding a realistic background with a similar color pallet to the foreground board is very helpful too. Lee is able to keep foreground and background in focus or mostly so.
Gene
thank you, sir!
Gene.
