Lionel Grandpa,

Unless I miss my guess, that is an Erector Hudson, minus the tender and leading truck. It has also been repainted.

BAR nice containers on the MEC flat.  How did you make them and what are you hauling in them?

These are my military rail cars. .  I have the Weaver kitchen car, troop sleeper and the hospital car.  I also have a Weaver Army box car and flatcar.  By the way, I have never had any problems with warping on the hospital cars.  Matt

COACH JOE. Thanks. They are just old glass bottles. First must wash them and paint yellow. Then little weathering & printed text. I hauling them some industrial liquid waste.

Maybe somebody will photoshop sun glasses on Barry and add the caption "Weekend at Barry's".

Just finished these up.

Looks great Matt. Don

Great pics, Finger is numb but so what. Been a while since I was here but always worth the wait.  Scott gives us pirates, Putnam Division brings back York past. All is missing is Ebenezer and his ghosts. But wait bluelinec4 brings us Weekend at Barry's so the York story continues. Walt brings us Christmas past while SIRT, BAR GP7 #63, CNJ #1601 show of their weathering skills and Rustykamel gives us a rust bucket. lehighline brings us the B&O while STANGTRAIN takes us to steamtown. Alex M builds a furniture factory,  PRRMiddleDivision gives us the art of the bridge and aubv pours concreate.  Christopher2035 survives New Jersey and Putnam Division puts his life at risk with scrapple.   NJCJOE gives us the Blue Comet while Steamer introduces a new bread of dog.

So here is my 2 cents, some great northern GP35 action

like them Great Northern's in the snow !   great scene !!

The Blue Comet arrives on Corsair29's layout along with some other pictures I took last Friday night:

Cool photos everyone!

I can finally run trains continuously on the mainline loop. 

Here's a B&P local waiting for a signal, while a CR empty slab steel train passes.

The BP local is on the move as the slab train clears.

Hopefully I'll have the signals installed for this interlocking soon.

Been there, done that ... many MANY times on both SP4449 and then SPS700.  Big grease gun gets very VERY heavy!

I took these over the weekend. 

Farmer Bill, Thanks for your post.  I had been wondering how to integrate my one lane road into the hill side. This is great and a history link to go with it.  Thank you.  Azgary

May have been partying after the DCS meet, trying to take quirky nap. maybe needs to recharge the capacitor.
