I gave my Nikon DSLR to my son, who has a two & one Year old boys.....
I am sitting at Rico Station, waiting for my new camera to show up. I have it down to a Canon T6i or a Nikon D5500. Maybe my ship will come in too.... lol No new photos.

C Sam, Awesome, wow, beautifully done, really nice layout. Your Locomotives and diesels look so good. Thank you for the Pictures. Keep them coming...
BXCXDAN, Another very nice scene, looks so Real, your work is very interesting. The switcher, (good color) sitting in front , the freight cars on the siding, all look so at home...Track ballast and colors of earth between the tracks so lifelike. Very nice. Display more pictures..OK? Thank you.
Thanks for the accolades Larry! Dan
Keep em coming guys! You all are making this a thread to remember! Here are a couple of shots of the train shed as it was being built...first picture was taken in June of 2009 and the second shot was in November of that same year...

This is a section of my layout that I completely (see the stripped-down shot) re-crafted, and I am so glad i did. In my imagination, it is reminiscent of many neighborhoods I used to know among the steel mill towns in Pennsylvania, of Duquesne, McKeesport, Homestead, Glassport, and Braddock. I wanted to capture a feel of some of those streets around the mills that enjoyed the company of the men after they finished their shifts at U.S. Steel. It was in a bar like in this neighborhood that I first ever heard of the local favorite, "Boiler-makers," which is an "acquired-taste" for some, but had me trying only once and learning that lesson ....

Very nice Moonson, incredible detail. Wish I had half that talent!
Love it especially the motorcycles Moonson. Where did you get the motorcycles if I may ask?
What a great thread! I am both inspired and intimidated. Thanks everyone for posting.
Moonson, you did a fantastic transformation of that area. The eye you have for planning out and executing it with the smallest detail is next to none. Job well done..........................Paul
Pennytrains Becky, as Mark said you have a gift at layout building. Great layouts for the changing seasons. Makes it more interesting and fun when you can change the layout periodically. Keep up the great work............Paul

Frank as usual great work. Your ability to tell a story or bring back memories is always amazing. This is a great scene on its own. All you need is crane with a wrecking ball, dump trucks, a loader, piles of debris, and this could be any place.
This easily could be South Chicago or any of the neighborhood that bordered US Steel. (My dads father worked at US Steel's South Chicago Works)
Great job Frank. You really know how to make a realistic urban scene. I love the detail.

Bruce,
Post as many times as you like!! The shelves look great!
Figured I'd get in on the action and...well...um.....
...hmmmm...maybe I'll check back in a few months.
Seriously, though, thanks for all that's been shared so far, & I'll keep you posted.
Trainroom Gary, I am impressed with your Photography, and the picture of you Waiting on the Train, Plane or Automobile? Or, Your Ship to come In??? Either way, it would be neat to sit on trackside and watch our trains run the rails...It actually could be dangerous....So, back to normal, Thanks for your post. Keep the pictures coming.... Happy Railroading.

That's hilarious!
Tremendous thread. Thanks to all of you for the "likes". Another two months and this old farmer can go back to trains for the winter.
