Good Morning All,
I will start off with something I constructed in the past. Lets see what you are working on or some past creations.

Ewing Oil, nice... made a deal with JR on that model, did you?
I worked on the backdrop for a section of my shelf layout this week. I made a collage of various photos of buildings.
Here is how it looks with building models placed in front of it.

Working on the diner interior more with my 3d printer and finishing paint on a few more figures.
New seated figures and place settings and cake stands as well as setting the kitchen in permanently.
and just size comparison to show how small I am 3d printing...

The DPM modular panels for my high school building were glued together Friday night. Dried and cured all day Saturday because we had a surprise visit by the grandson.
Hope to assemble and glue the right angle end panels at a perfect 90 degrees today. 🤣
Just kidding. Nothing at our old school building built in 1929 was perfect with the exception of Pi.

aubv, those fish are great, where did you get them?
Outstanding so far gentlemen!
aubv, the only thing missing is a person with a fishing rod standing on that rock.
The fish are from Michael’s
The picture was taken in process. There now is a kid on the rock fishing-early bird gets the worm…

Brian,
You never cease to amaze me.
Matt,
Your scene looks fantastic with both the backdrop and the building. Very real.

It looks like that 3d printer is going to help you super detail an already spectacular layout
Hey...... I think I may know where that Ewing Oil facility is. 
Everything looks great modelers!!!
All, Outstanding showcase, a little bit of everything this week. Really nice work.
Tom
Great stuff, today!

MEC 801 weathered this morning.
Another great ebay rare find. Added super cap and some additional features. The unit was like new, ran once or twice. The battery started to leak. This was a 12 year search to find this unit. In demand, you would think P.M. would have offered more.
As with many MTH diesels, the diamond plate 3M decking is incomplete. I had the same issue on the PC RS-11. Andy E. was kind enough to send me some decking when the (Premier) PC came out. He also sent me the missing fuel filler pipes (missing in production). I added the decking to the blank deck areas to complete the look.

Is that clearance between the boxcar roof and the canopy as tight as it looks? Yikes! Hope you don’t spot the wrong boxcar on that siding.

Justin.......It's made to pitch up AND the spur should sit on the ground rather than like a built-up main line......I thought the rods they included were way too long.
.....I called TW TrainWorx and spoke to Roger Farkash. I sent him the pictures and agreed....He had new ones cut and they are already in the mail (within hours I got an email from Dorcie).
Circling back, hhis was my dilemma when I read the instructions and went to install the canopies......it seemed to me that there was no way that these were the correct length for what is described......so, I called before I tried to "engineer it" on my own......
Peter
Here it is without the RossBed......sidings should be lower than the main.....so that's what I will do.....the rod in the picture is the original rod (waiting for the new ones).

Thank you Don, that is high praise! I've admired your layout for years and was just watching your latest video showing all the details, figures and scenery on your layout. At my pace, I should catch up to your progress in about 150 years...
