Let me share a name synonymous with KCS transition era modeling; Nick/Nicholas Muff. He has the front section of an F-unit painted KCS in his...
I thought Bachmann sold their Spectrum series tenders separately. And those tenders had power pickup, if I am not mistaken. I am going to look at...
Definitely like the track plan. Plenty of switching options in a small space. Are you planning to use unitrack, atlas 55 or scratch build? Good...
Sorry I should have been more specific. Yes I am writing about the locomotive. I saw the shells on shapeways. I am a real novice when it comes to...
Does anyone know of a thread or web post of an N scale genset build? I wish and had hoped that one of the manufacturers by now would have come up...
Nimo, Your work is such an inspiration. Your pine tree modeling techniques are the best I have seen so far. I enjoy all of your postings and...
Just ordered NSR magazine. Looking forward to giving it a whirl. Going to model Fort Eustis railroad in N scale. All the new microtrains DODX cars...
How did you get the low nose geep? Did you cut down yourself? If so, do you have how you did it. Or did you get a low nose shell from CMR or some...
Just out of curiosity, the KCS units had different sideframes is there a plan to also print and sell sideframes to fit the Kato PA mechanism?
I just watched the first video. Just one word, AWESOME! Thanks for the videos. Very impressive modeling skills.

I have two pumpkins on Wiregrass Central property in Enterprise, Alabama. Just had decals made. Will be watching your paint progress. Will be a...
Will an Atlas MP15DC shell fit on an Athearn MP15AC drive chassis?
The railroad that I model, Wiregrass Central, was recently purchased by G&W. Since the purchase, an SW1500 and an SW1504 have shown up in G&W...
Randgust, Have you recently considered upsizing the Whitcomb to HO through Shapeways? My eyes aren't what they used to be. That is why I switched...
We are heading to Murphy, NC. I think the closest LHS is in Ellijay,GA.
Guys, thanks for all the input and info. Getting ready to go on vacation to NC. Will check recommendations when I get back.
Ok. I guess I will keep looking. The next system I was looking at was NCE powercab. Maybe I should read one of the DCC books advertised in MR.
