George Lasley and I have been busy completing new scenes and details on the new Duckunder Terminal Railway here in Raleigh.  Here are a few photos of two scratch-built speeder sheds by George Lasley, speeders, and a scale track shed, also scratch-built by George.

Chris Bojanower was very helpful (thanks, Chris!) in changing the color balance on these shots, but his edits were not in a form I could upload, so the pictures here are the originals.  Please forgive my ineptness.

We've also finished a large and very detailed engine terminal scene not pictured here.

More to come eventually.

Thanks, everyone.  I appreciate all the accolades.  Mainly credit should go to George Lasley; I come up with plans and ideas, and he makes them real. 

 

My interest and expertise is in designing complex layouts and then operating them.  I've never been any good at detailing.  George Lasley deserves all the kudos for realizing my concepts and adding some of his own concepts, too.  When it comes to bringing a scene to life, George is a genius.  I am lucky to call him my friend.

 

As for the '57 Plymouth, I bought it recently from a friend who is downsizing his collection, and it didn't have a box.  I'll have to look on the bottom of the car to see who made it when I get home to Raleigh late on Sunday (I'm en route to Seattle).  If George reads this before I get back, maybe he can swing by our house to check it and post the maker.

Thanks for the compliments.  The scale house, speeder sheds and the pump house (behind shed with orange speeder) are based on photos from the N&W Historical Society collection.  All are styrene sheet and strip with a few window castings.  The speeders are Weisman kits.  They are very detailed and go together easily with a little patience.

 

Today's project was a water treatment plant patterned along the lines of the facility in Williamson, WV.
