Great backdrops, terrible website!

The web site is a little busy ...LOL

I was just checking out these guys. http://www.tracksidescenery.com/

Seem nice looking, and the website's a lot better.

Check out the Border Store (on Line).  They offer several scenes that are very nice at less than $30 for a 12 long by 18 inches tall border.

Good luck and happy railroading,

if you go to the Fed-ex stores they sometimes have nice vinyl posters that were rejected or never picked up.

make them an offer and you have something really nice. the gromets are already installed.

in my case my brother has a tv show and the backdrop they were using was a scene of the brooklyn bridge. very dramatic and cool when they changed backdrops i got it and put it up against the wall of the basement it is a wow getter.

Definitely Tracksidescenery.com

Or, find a nice panorama photo on the net (or make one yourself with an iPhone) and get it printed.  Here is a thread on this topic:

Clouds and backgrounds

I actually had my own printed. I got some free scenic pictures online, made a stitched graphic I liked in Photoshop and had it printed. I think I like the bricks the best

Bannerbuzz.com - printed on durable reusable vinyl. Perhaps a little glossy but it is is built like a truck. When I took this layout down I rolled it up 1-2-3

And rude deplorable customer service. Insulted and hung up on me when I was attempting to place an order because I wasn't "smart enough" to figure out how to order on their "award winning" website.

From what I can tell, a beautiful product. Good luck actually purchasing it.

My vote is for OGR Sponsor Scenic Express. Not as fancy, but very affordable and the folks are great to work with.

Jim thanks for the link to Trackside Scenery. Their Shenandoah series is just what I am looking for my extension. Also their web site is a breeze.

I just seen Joey last weekend at the scale show.. his stuff blows everyone elses away and HALF the cost of Mr I dont need your 2 Gs and dont have time to  give you any answers to your questions,figure it out yourself on my acid tripped built web pages and then call back when your ready. 

Wish Joe  was around when i had to deal with that jerk (to be very generous)  at backdrop warehouse. Many others have also had problems with him -glad he isnt the only game in town anymore...

.Usually id keep things like that to myself but that guy goes out of his way to insult you while your trying to give him your money.

thank you for leting us know about scenic express i checked out the web site and they are very nice and very affordable. a heck of a lot cheaper than kinkos

Can you imagine the amount of business that would have been generated here if the Backdrop Warehouse guy took care of his customers like Jimmy Sutter and many of the other OGR Sponsors????

Good thread. Thanks for the info guys.

Forum advertiser DUNHAM STUDIOS (click their add above) has some for sale. They have partnered with a manufacturer to make some of the Lionel inspired artwork into backgrounds.

Paint it!  It can uniquely yours, less expensive and one-of-a-kind.  Painting on some different shades of blue/grey and adding a cloud or two isn't that tough.  Check out the overwhelming number of videos on You Tube.
