    Hi folks:

    Here are a few pics of some scenery I've started on my new Tacoma layout. It's the old Tacoma and Eastern station near Milwaukee Gulch. There are also a few shots of the Milwaukee trestle and NP's Tacoma roundhouse, yet to be built. I had to add some scenery, just to put some color on the layout:)

    I like the silos...especially that green one...:tb-wink::tb-biggrin:

    *All kidding aside...scenery of any kind does always make things look/feel better.

    awesome! I'm assuming the bridges and structures are scratchbuilt? Outstanding modeling!

    Thanks guys:

    Dave all the structures are scratch built except the water tank, and the Rix Products highway bridge. I spliced two Kato girder bridges for the crossing at Reservation tower. I have a bunch more buildings and stuff the scratch build in the future.

    That's very cool. What are you working on in the yard? those white styrene boxes look like a cool project!

    They are a Milwaukee Road EF-5 4 unit set of boxcabs. I just need to finish the details on them. They have 16 wheel drive and traction tires so they pull like crazy.

    Cheers:

    Sounds just like the prototypes. They could really get down and pull tonnage.
