Here is an old image I found digging around in my slide box. I believe a similar shot was published in the July/August 1996 N Scale Magazine. It shows the west end of my Sugar Land NTRAK modules.
F7P 1414 and its associated consist running across Slocan Bridge on an unfinished scene on CPR's Boundary sub. Have a great weekend everyone! md
Great consist, too! Looks like FP7, F7B, FB1, and some kind of FM long hood type. That would be EMD/EMD/Alco/FM. Looks good!
Thank you for the kind words, and good eye. On the prototype Boundary Sub in the late 60's early 70's you would find all kinds of strange consists of power and paint schemes. In this case GMD FP7, GMD F7B, MLW FB2 and a CLC H16-44, the Canadian manufactured versions on EMD, Alco and FM. md
Moin, hello Some POLA H0 kits I build years ago for my German layout. Modelling only US H0 since some years, they will just be found on the layout of a club member still doing German modules. A lot of smoke comes out of this little blue box
I have finally finished some new freight cars since working on the U25B for the last month. This is an IMRC 40' PS1 Boxcar Kit with an 8' Door that I did to go with my 50's era consists. Painted with Scalecoat II Boxcar Red and lettered with Champ Decals. This is an Atlas ACF 3500CF Cylindrical Covered Hopper, painted with lightened EL Gray Floquil Paint and lettered with Islington Station Products decals. Covered Hopper is used for hauling Borax. The third Reading RR ACF 4650CF Covered Hopper that I have done for inclusion in my 70's eras consists. Painted with Scalecoat II MofW Gray and lettered with Herald King Decals. Thanks for looking!

I haven't contributed much this past year as I am between layouts. This is an old shot showing a Pennsylvania Railroad Duplex T1 stepping gingerly onto a timber trestle over Seneca Gorge.
A couple from the show here in the Springs. My San Francisco Chief crosses the duck under module. Had a blast running this at the show. First time it has ever run in public eye. A module set depicting a small town in Kansas. My GP7's idle in front of the grain elevator as the SF Chief approaches. My Reefer block cooling its heels (pun not intended) at the ice house. I purchased several more of these reefers during this show as well. Have a great week everyone!
