OK I guess I forgot to get this started on Friday so will try again here. Must have had a senior moment there. This is an oldie from the files.
I'm suspecting it is so here are my shots for the weekend. These are from my collection of shots taken at the Cimmaron River bridge west of Mannford on the PanHandle Sub...
Wolfgang...great! Just great!! :thumbs_up: Howard Biby: I like the photo angle; makes the engines look massive.
Wolfgang, mein freund...!!!! Whew!!! My hat is off to you, and I am bowing deeply. I would have gotten as far, maybe (just maybe) as getting the switch stand in place and operational. You have gone on to do something I can only marvel at. Bravo!
A New York Central Mikado backs some loaded hoppers down the spur leading to Sentinel Mines Colliery. It will leave them attached to several others already parked on a siding about 200 yards to the left of the image. Later, a passing Y6b will stop and latch on to the hoppers waiting to be taken further west.

Three SP GS-4 "Daylight" 4-8-4's. The CC GS-4 is on the left. The Key Imports GS-4 is in the middle and the Kato GS-4 is on the right.
Hi: Great photos everyone. Here's an F7-F3 ABBA lash up with a string of box cars rolling along Roaring Creek.
SNFF 2009 01 11 Starting out the New Year.... As financial situation is extremely tight and new model railroad purchases definitely on hold... decided to spend time doing layout scenery detailing. After all, when money is tight.... we've got time! Before: And as you can imagine, somehow, fixing one little spot: Turned into deciding to upgrade the whole scenery across the whole module: I guess that's one reason why model railroading is such a fun hobby..... you can never run out of things to do! Have a good week, all.
The project I've been working on this week is this Model Power Shell station. The paint and glue was still a bit wet when these photos were taken.
Here's the latest custom-build project I did on one of my Whitcomb resin N kits: I tried something on this one - I used the etched steps from the 70-tonner on this one, they fit, they look good, and when I can get some more, I'm making them standard. This was a really fun project, took a lot of research, the buyer is a real historian on the C&G.
I like it. I call it "harsh" and weathered hard. Some chalks would change it and add some road grime. It looks like some use of alcohol.
