Agree 100%! Nothing runs like Key.... Marbles on glass! 

This one the Coal Turbine from Overland run 2000 is what I think from overland also one of the best it runs and it runs you don't hear it so quiet it has really a big motor. I'm a fane of Union Pacific but of course also like the others.

thanks, I will posted in time more.

Beautiful pictures also the number 12 and the same version I think those will not make any more.

This is my new locomotive just received 0-6-0 Camel Back a very special one I never own one this is the first from GEM MODELS. The first thing I did what bothered me was the tender too far from the locomotive so I adjusted that with new hole little further away and yes mutch better looking. I have also added sand pipes but now the weathering thing I looking forward to do it. Also what I did was the gearbox it was not running great so I fix that two. Too bad this is no longer made anymore (small locomotives) only you see the big stuff but the small ones are just as fun.

You see in the last picture the tender is now ok to the locomotive

The real one and that is the weathering what I going to do 

To see it in black and white also awesome.

Nice detail. It's nice to have a spare engineer laying around if you need one.    

Yes it is, always needed.....

So I started with the weathering first what I do is with the brush what is a little bit rough I use Humbrol, revell and Tamiya paint but in the next face it wil be more what it mutch be. The whole locomotive must be with the brush that will be for the next weekend I hope and the last face I use the airbrush and spray with crime black  and rust en dust from floguil paint, the best but not healthy so I do it always with the window open and spray not so mutch. I take the time in the beginning of weathering for the best result. You see pictures behind the model well so far indeed I go.

I'm also a big fan of pensy cabooses I like them very mutch so I collected them over the years.

I like Pennsylvania mutch as Union Pacific but of course almost every road I like in the states, you have the best. You see on the picture I like cabooses...

I was in the states and this is a example of pictures I like to weather but in O scale it is hard to do but what you see it is awesome I hope to do it on my layout this kind of weathering

More examples

You have a beautiful collection. Thanks for sharing it!

Museum grade work

Great work!  Beautiful photos.  The trees you did are stunning...very impressive layout.

Thanks, a picture of a Key Imports E9 CB&Q diesel I like this one it runs good and the chrome- plated on the side is unbelievable. I know I have send it before maybe this is a nice picture.

WOW! Great work.

Ditto Joe!  I am blown away with the detail and excellent modelling!  Just shows you can skip over any topic, even though the title isn't all that descriptive.

Thanks try to do it as good as possible. O scale is not that catchy title I might try to change it. I have posted two pictures of the Overland brass Cantilever Signal Bridge I have all the 3 what is produced this one is as new never seems touched I like them so mutch and to find one is hard. Too bad this will never be made again happy that American Scale Models did some fine structures I hope he will do more.

Well, you're "good as possible" beats my best any day of the week!

Cleaning up for an open house in conjunction with the March Meet.

very very nice you do Baltimore and ohio what I see on a tender I like also that crane is that brass, Overland did one in O scale.

A other picture of a Key imports Cab Forward difficult to pick op with all those plumbing very detail locomotive.

The tender will be repainted into our road name soon. The crane is an Overland. No cab forward, which were you looking at?

That Overland crane is hard to find beautiful that is I don't have one maybe some day.

So today my wife is away and so fast I can to my man cave trains trains and trains. I started to go further with the Camel Back to weather it, 'this is not finished yet' now it must dry before I go a other weathering on it. I'm not easily satisfied this will work for a long time before I like it well fun I think.

I have no background because of the roof of the house these buildings was the first thing what I build on the yard, I don't know why but I'm not happy with it I looking for a lot of pictures maybe to change, the rocks on the other side of my layout is very ok. Well this hobby is never finished I hope never...

I enjoy a layout photographed as you have. It gives the up close look. Yours looks great!  I have done this on previous layouts and use it to find goobers. 

Thanks I do my best to do nice pictures so I have new one's. I'm still busy with the weathering of the Camel back locomotive not yet there.
