WEEKEND PHOTO FUN 2/21/14-??

Have a great weekend Everyone!

Alan

Here are a few from the old layout...

NYC coming through on the high line

That's a very pretty backdrop Scott.  Did your friend paint it himself?

Charlie had someone paint it for him and it does look very nice.

Scott Smith

Fantastic picture Scott, that should be a framed one in your house!

That Milk Man is awesome!  Is that Artista or something else?

The figure comes with the Divco from American Heritage.  They also sell them separately.  But the figure is large at 1:43.

Painted man is part of the truck set when you buy it. I just painted red bottle tab tops and silver on the basket frame. Also added my birthday number decals on the truck with a splash of mud and rear L. plate.

A 2013 Christmas layout memory

There was a recent thread about every town needing a church, which I didn't participate in.  So I'll do it here.

here is my contribution.

AG.

I'll  second that! I know its a real photo but it has (ironically since the newest OGR mag was released) some sort of an Angela Trotta Thomas, or O Winston Link"feel" to it. Very nice!

Enjoy your weekend & be safe.

They're all COOL!!!!

This past week there has been discussion about Lightweight passenger cars and the finish to make them look like stainless steel. K-Line Lightweights have a wonderful bright look as you can see in this photo.

Brian - I love that picture of your beautiful passenger terminal!  You have really caught the drama and excitement of "train time" at a big city passenger station.  Makes me want to be a miniature person and get on board for an exciting trip on passenger trains the way that they used to be.

My new Menard's Hardware store

Spence:

Your new Menards looks very good.

Here's my new signal bridge. I've shown this area before but since then added more trees and the signal bridge.

Very nice work!!!! Being PRR never hurts!!!! Nice neat space!

Weaver FA-2; painted it 2 - 3 years ago; masked the red from photos (I think of it as

a NdeM "Warbonnet"):

TruckTrain....I like that signal bridge....who makes it?  I bought a Lionel 450 model but it doesn't quite span my Fastrack double main. 

Thanks,

Rick

Our first run of D-154 Dealer Murals were finished by our printer today. We're really proud of how they have turned out.

Ron Walter, my father and myself at a train show held at the East Freedom Fire Hall back in the early 80's.

THE FREIGHT YARD

Two pictures of my shelfs that are now stocked with trains. The second picture includes a view of my layout. And yes,that's Frank53's engine house!

I knew I had this and finally found it. Its from October 1982. The little guy has three of his own. Too bad the other guy didn't keep his "looks"
