Good stuff already.

I need to find something worthy of posting.

Been mostly working on cars for club operating sessions this past week.

Walthers pre-decorated kit for a 40’ Airslide Covered Hopper, did dull coat it after assembly.

Concor 40’ Airslide kit, painted with Scalecoat II UP Covered Hopper Gray and lettered with CMR decals, wanted a generic airslide that could be used at any industry requiring an Airslide.

Finally for my own use an IMWX 1937 AAR Boxcar kit painted with Scalecoat II Boxcar Red #2 and Black Paints and lettered with National Scale Car decals. Used in general service on the SAL.

Rock Island GP35 and U25B with a general freight running on the Strongsville Club layout.

The first loads are being pulled from the new wood chip loader by Seaboard Coast Line (SCL) No. 1053. Like the prototype, I relettered Seaboard Air Line (SAL) No. 1900 into SCL No. 1053, showing its appearance just after the SAL-Atlantic Coast Line merger.

And, hey! Somebody’s already spilled a bunch of wood chips!

This is just a base coat of ground cover applied, but you get the idea.

Not as nice as some of the stuff I have seen here, but this is my (and my wife’s) first layout build. Making it so we can practice and learn.

Good stuff so far, everyone!
Heres a project i built in the 80s to utilize the drive from an MDC Shay I couldn’t conquer.
Eventually I thought it was cheesy, and too noisy and it got scattered among parts boxes.

Recently I thought So what, it was fun, I still have the main pieces and can upgrade the drive, including DCC. The drive is operational, the rest, awaiting uniform paint, is mocked up for now. Dan
