Weekend Photo Fun Post York-Halloween 2012 Edition

Scott...  As ever, thanks for starting this thread.  Just a suggestion though...  could you caption the photos so we know who these folks are?  Thanks!

Here are some images of the hobo camp area on our layout.

SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS!  WORLD CHAMPIONS!!!

Hi Eric,

 

Since I took most of these photos and others that Scott will be posting later I'll try to fill in the names of the people in the pictures.

 

Starting from top to bottom we find some of the members of the Maryland O Gauge RR Club with Chuck, AKA TrainPop, Ambrogio and Jim Mason. Next photo is Frank Morris, next is me, Steve Tapper & Frank Morris, Peggy Seebach & Steve, table shot with George Flanagan on the right, next shot of the table is Vince Seebach's family. Next is Vince kissing his son, Scott and his son Josh and Vince, and finally Chuck and Eddie Goldman or Eddie G on the forum.

 

I'll try to identify as many people as I can but honestly I don't know all of the people in all of the photos.

 

Steve Tapper

You guys are doing well but, GO TIGERS! 

Steve...  Thanks!

fun at the club.

I've just spotted what's directly behind the cow, no wonder the poor thing is running for its life!    

Heard a little commotion last night out in the garage.  I flicked on the light and...

My final 2011 Christmas layout memory, brought back only because it's a Halloween thread!

 

The Halloween portion of my "4 seasons" layout last year.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Even tho' this is a Halloween (mostly) week, I figured that I'd still post the beginning of creating my 2012 Christmas layout memories

 

End of week 1's efforts:

It appears the Grim Reaper may be a railfan as well.......hopefully!

 

 

 

 

I wonder if the witches know anything about that small cemetary?

 

 

 

I think these are the last pictures I have from Fridays.

GREAT PHOTO'S EVERYONE, SCOTT THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR POSTING ALL THESE WONDERFUL PHOTO'S OF ALL OF US AT FRIDAYS. IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL NIGHT.

 

THANKS, ALEX

Thank you again Scott for posting the 38 pictures I sent to you!

 

Boy do I love that Nikon D60 SLR and my Windows 7 Photo Gallery!

 

Steve Tapper

Thanks for all the photos Scott and guys. It appears that a youth movement is underway in York attendance--everybody is younger than me[and almost as er...chubby].

Some new freight cars arrived...

 

HAPPY WEEKEND

I have been doing some train work in the past week I can show.........

My attempt at weathering locomotives......

Started with....MTH RK AT&SF 4-8-4.....

And after Neolube, an airbrush with Polly S and Tamiya paint and a little brush work....

I am pretty happy with the results and will continue to do the same with the vast majority of my locos. Some my feel I am ruining collectibles but I'd never sell them and there are plenty of mint MTH locos out there.....I like the real world look.....Thanks

Here is two pictures of my new caboose's i got this week one mth B&O bay window caboose and the other Atlas C&O ev caboose

Creative Halloween photos and good to see the many that got together before York.

 

Here is a little Black and Orange Halloween colors,  as the Plows get ready for work for the season with fresh snow falling in the Rockies.

 The platform that the rocket is on raises from below the layout with billowing smoke and rocket sound.  the second picture shows our roundhouse with a few steam engines.

 

 

 

My daughter decided to give our Polar Express a Halloween treatment..

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's good to see that so many of you have really embraced Halloween with your trains! It adds spice to your layouts and I'm sure is a big hit with the kids too!

Alex nice shots of the UP 844 and the MTH Flag Baggage Car. I have both of these as well. Did you catch the thread some time ago about painting the baggage car door (now in yellow) to match the flag effect? I have two and had them painted at the recommendation of another Forum member. I will send you a picture of what it looks like.
