Show me something.....March 2017

Okay guys, here’s a couple of hobos that have deceided to take up residence in an abandoned caboose/combine:

Got any hobos on your layout?

By the campfire.

More Hobos please.

No Hobos?

How about an unfinished scene?

The original siding was installed in 1910 at Trogen Paper. It collapsed and dumped the boxcar in the grass. Now that a new siding has been installed, the boxcar can be retrieved.

More unfinished scenes please.

My hobo has given up on “riding the rails” since too many routes are now bike-trails!

He’s semi-retired now and took over this camper…

Maybe folks need a little time?

OK, Show me an unfinished scene…

My elementary school was next to a woods, which was next to a very nice neighborhood. The Ma & Pa was 2 miles away and I think it stopped running by the time I reached 2nd grade.

Everyone of us were afraid to go into that woods because we knew “there were hobos there”

Here is a better view of my first set of hobos:

Here’s another group. Living on the “wrong side” of the Water Level Route.

Hobo Joe FTRA riding the rails.

Let’s see more hobos, extra points if they are riding the rails.

Here was my unfinished scene.

Lifelike breand Earth sprinkled on wet latex paint.

Show me more hobos or someone riding the rails for free.

Two More Happy Carefree Souls

More Hobos Please

Bob

No more hobos after 40 hours. Here is a Red Tailed Hawk perched on the grain elevator.

Show me more birds please.

Guy … Thanks for re-starting Show Me thread.

Crows on a scare crow. My attempt at humor.

Please show more birds. …

Crows checking the trash cans in the Fishermans Memorial Park on teh Boothbay Railway Village layout

Show me a farm scene, extra credit if it includes a scarecrow

Farm scene sans scarecrow.

Show me any animals in a scene, please.

Here’s my milk farm.

Your’s looks great. Grampy

Any one have a horse farm?

Lee

Not quite a horse farm, but both cows and horses, with a Pennsy Ore Train in the foreground.

More Farm Scenes Please!

The horse farm on Bootbay Railway Village with the narrow gauge track going by

More farms (or ranches) please

And another farm for you…

Another farm please…

I’m not putting any hobos on my pike, because I’m modelling the present, in the northeast. In forty years of train watching, I’ve only seen a hobo on a train once.

I’ll bump this thread to the top. … Last request was another farm scene. The right half of this photo has one.

Please show a local freight train either on the main line or on a branch line. .

The tail-end of the local passes the Coalwood #6 mine…

Show me another local, turn or short freight.
