Thank you Bill...the story (and I am sticking to it..LOL!) about the guys working around the pickup is they are all arguing about who is going to tell the boss what they did with the left over Sky Blue paint...notice the color of the pickup!!..

Great pictures. It's amazing how greatly improved or realistic a photo looks with some natural light added.
John...thanks! I found the crane at the April York meet this year. It was in the Silver Hall..?? Anyway, it is a toy crane that was battery powered but looked pretty good from a distance. Someone had used it on their layout before I got it and had painted and lettered it for CSX. I repainted it yellow and then mounted it on the girder and panel beams you see in the picture....

Gary....thanks for the request and suggestion about doing a video. I did a series of what were really slide videos of the layout and posted them here on the forum....I think you saw those. I have been considering a "real" video for some time but honestly don't think the layout is ready yet. Perhaps I should re-think it. Their are a couple of videos on Youtube that "MOPAC" here on the forum posted when he visited several years ago. You might be able to find them....
Thanks,
Alan
Alan it looks great as a fan of city life you have captured the feel of a large city and all its intricacies!!
Don...sorry it took me so long to acknowledge your very nice compliment. Yes...I have really enjoyed the natural light coming in on the layout. I allows me to get some great shots!
