A photo from the archives to kick things off this weekend. This was scratch built to resemble the old Davis house that used to stand in Richmond, Texas. It has since been moved to George Ranch historical park and restored.
Russell, that is a nice looking structure! It's been a while since I finished any new cars, but here they are. Now I seem to be on a two week schedule with building, painting and decaling. This is an old Details West 52' RBL (The Evans Blue Island Reefer), now in Ralston Purina Service hauling cereal. Painted with Floquil Signal Red and lettered with Herald King Decals. This is an Eel River Models 62' PC&F RBL used in Coors Beer Service at Golden, CO. Painted White and lettered with Oddballs Decals. Since I mixed the paint for the Corn Syrup Tank car, I decided to paint a Corn Products Covered hopper at the same time. The car is an Atlas Kit (Not much work to assemble). Painted and decorated with Herald King Decals. Thanks for looking! Rick
May I post a couple of oldies? My favorite SP steam with reefer block ........ This is coming way too soon ............. Ho, Ho, Ho Carl
Lovely buildings and fence, Wolfgang. I've been working on my diorama. I planted a tree and made roots with DAS clay I like to paint the clay while it's wet Mike
This is my latest creation. Front Range frame, motor, flywheels, shafts and worms. Proto 2000 AAR FA trucks, Walthers Trainline GP9m shell, Digitrax decoder set for road switcher speed table. It runs nicely in consist with my Model Power GP9.
This is my latest acquisition, an ex Santa Fe SD26 I weathered with oils to represent the way Guilford ran them Mike
