Sunday Scenic Showcase 08-05-2012

I started on a new single stand roller for the inside of my rolling mill at home.

The city of Poughkeepsie on my CNYRR was of modest size:

Had only a small industry or two:

and had its share of calamities over the years:

But nothing prepared its residents for this much different view of the downtown area on an otherwise quiet Sunday morning:

The two new tunnel portals and strange building on stilts foretold changes of geologic proportions.

More news to follow.

Jim,

I feel another magazine article in the making

Hi Bill,

The residents of the old Poughkeepsie are thinking of putting up a statue in your honor. After all, you were the last visitor to see and photograph the old city.

You'll see Jim Policastro's and Don Klose's transformation of the Mohawk Valley shop layout in our December issue, and you'll likely see Jim's reconstruction of Poughkeepsie on his home layout in a 2013 issue.

Nice craftsmanship Guys!

Dave, maybe you could use that as a drum stick dispenser too LOL.

I’ve done so many cars in the last few weeks, I lost track.

Here’s a variety pack……

Car for DK…

Too many more to list.

A few pictures of the Pennsy Warehouse scene....

Food for thought and inspiration in any scale. One I wish to aspire to. Great work everybody!!!

Great work, everybody!!

Don, that's the guy who really got me started in this hobby.

Very nice wotk from all. Thank you for sharing.

Building  a overpass from an article in CTT, needs some detail and some paint. Just doing a test fit here.

Nice work everyone.  Dave, that roller is looking awesome. Scratched?

Been working on some stuff for a roundhouse / service area.  Here's a small outbuilding cobbled together from an Atlas O engine shed:

Don,

Looks good! I think a skylight on the roof will show off the interior detail.

Great work guys.
