Right DJ, because having an Alco going VRMMBAB VMBABVMBA overhead is a good way to at
Beautiful scene, Grampy. I like the lush grass on the right bank of the river, what is it?
Jarrell
Agreed. I really like those period correct night shots.
Thanks, guys. Rob, tomorrow in SE, 2 weeks, for rest of the state.
Jarrell, that is Silfor, Summer collection, I think, from Scenic Express. DJ.
It’s been too long since I posted anything so here goes.
Jaeger Kit of Weyerhaeuser Load
Another Jeager Kit of Hampton Lumber Load this one was done a lot better than the first pic because it was the first one I did.
And finally, two plate steel loads scratchbuilt out of styrene. They aren’t done, but I will try to get them done sometime next week. They are placed on two Athearn 60’ flat cars decorated for BNSF. I weathered the decks with paint and powders.
Pasture area on the right side of the around the walls is done
Need to add the house- barns -silo and other structures
Nice work on this pasture. However, I would advise you to flock together you animals. In real life, cows, horses and sheeps tend to stay together and often near a water spot. For sheeps pasture, it is a common sight to see animal trail along the fences. It would give more dynamic appeal to this scenery without extra work. Anyway, a train running through countryside is a never dying classic.

Decided to try posting a pic to the forum, we’ll see if this works.
It’s an undec atlas hopper that I painted and weathered… haven’t done much weathering and it looks more like it was used as an outhouse for a flock of crows than I intended.
I didn’t get it to post right, got a link to it instead… it was a flickr page and I don’t remember the rules on posting links so I edited that out. I’ll have to re-read the instructions and try again. Sorry everyone.
several edits later: Thank you selector, I finally figured out how to copy the link to the photo!
You need the URL for the full-sized image bracketed closely by the img tags. They have the square brackets around them.
Crandell
Railfanned another modeler’s Olean, Bradford and Western today.
Caught B & P 202 working the Olean Yard while a Pennsy Trainmaster awaits to enter the yard.
Just east of Warren, Caught a manifest freight enroute to Albany from Cleveland.
That’s one of your better pics Jeffrey [Y]
Some of my equipment in the display case
This is too cool! Great work executing a great idea.
I like that scheme Chad!..that could work. maybe you should submit it to the brass and see what they think!
Chad,
Thanks for the compliment, as I built it it was hard not to grab the red paint, the additional detailing & my mind made it a CP unit. Also, when I started getting the decals on it, it really ‘did’ work, IMO.
Yes, I did send it to CP, one of the two people auto responded ‘Out of the Office’ so we’ll see.
I think it could be ‘Plausible’
Thanks again!
Great work everyone!
Crandell, another great steam locomotive photo.
MAbruce, thats a great trestle bridge.
Grampy, a wonderful scene. I need some water on my layout!
Here are a couple of shots from the BRVRR:
NYC GP40 Passing through Berea Station at the head of a short freight.
NYC S-3 874 draws a crowd as the crew prepares to move a box car.
Keep the photos and ideas coming guys. You always make this the best thread of the week.
What is the story with this backdrop? Is it a commercial backdrop? If so, where does it come from?
John
Graffen!
Very nice! By the way wan’t that scene (your last night scene) also modelled by the late John Armstrong also? I believe I remember a picture of that scene also in an old Model Railroder?
Bedt regards, Olav
