No problems, here you are:

Shay conversion

If you have any questions about the conversion, don´t hesitate to ask!

Good luck with the build [:D]

Thanks. I always enjoy your photos! You continue adding more activity in your scenes.

I really like the lush look of the vegetation you have going on here!

Very nice pictures everyone. I only ever show my trestle because it’s the best thing I’ve got. Well, I’m working on a different area so I thought I’d show some progress shots. Get ready for my “B” game![:D]

A few progress shots from my town of Wells. They are kind of blurry, but you should expect that from me!

An overall shot

My church parking lot.

Waiting for the train to pass.

A blurry, quick shot of the small depot area. The buildings are just sitting there for spacing for now.

What!!! Sunday evening and all these gorgeous photos are almost sliding down to page 3? Can’t have that now can we. So here is what I have doing for some of the weekend at least.

Got started putting in the belt drive hardware in the workshop/engine house at the quarry. Got to use a lot of those words mommy said she was going to wash my mouth out with soap if I used… Took a bunch of little itty bitty tiny parts over to the spray booth in a little plastic cup. Set it down on a block of wood, went to turn on the booth, and knocked the cup all over the place… Took about 15 minutes of crawling on the cold concrete floor to find all the parts…

Amazing how bad the camera makes it look…

While parts were drying, I painted up some rails at the quarry. You can see the nearest rail isn’t painted. Shows how nice it looks after it gets rusted up a bit.

I have also found railbars are a great way to hide electrical gaps in the Fast Tracks Turnouts.

Great details with the track, I like those joint bars.
