Sunday Scenic Showcase December 11, 2016

I am running the portable layout this weekend at the Boulder County Fairgrounds. The Boulder Model Railroad Club Train Expo 

Fantastic scene Erik.

Thanks Alan 

Working on DTD Bingo's Pool Hall.  It will be a small hardware store.  Front door needs a touch up on the red, I nicked a piece of red off. Back door not painted yet

Nice period modeling Erik. Everything always seems to look better with 2 rails. Reminds me of my modular H.O. layout sitting in the attic collecting dust.

There it is folks – 99% of people would've shot a static camera angle and called it a day. In 21 seconds Erik pans, zooms and had me thinking steadicam.

Cinematic excellence. Bravo, Sir. 

We have made significant progress on our steam service facility. Here are some before and after pics.

 Before

and now.

Next step will be to detail the platforms.

Eric, those downtown city scenes are fantastic. Some of the best I've ever seen. Are the buildings scratch built? What are you using for the roads/sidewalks? Beautifully done!

Excellent contributions everyone!  Here's a short video that I shot with my iPhone yesterday to showcase some of the weathering and Kadee scale coupler conversion work I've done to my roster in the past year or so.

The Cotton Belt boxcar (two cars in front of the caboose) is a "transition" car with Kadee's on one end and a traditional "claw" on the other end.

Someday (soon, hopefully!!) I'll have a highly-detailed and weathered layout that matches up much better with this equipment than my little 4'x6' toy-train-like basement layout!!

Here are some better photos of the DTD build in progress.....

Here's my latest work. The Korber textiles building gets a bit more landscaping, and this side of the roundhouse gets completed and landscaped as well. Slowly making progress on the scenery end of the layout. 

Thanks Zep!

Very nice Andre- great work.   Excellent placement of the figures.   The guy in the trench coat looks like he is trying to stay below the radar of the the other guy behind the car (I think he is a cop)

Wow,

Some very nice work this week guys!

Just finished up on an 8 unit grain elevator.
