I'm going to "bet" natural - no flash...... :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

Me too,I try to not use a flash when at all possible.Of course with a crappy P&S it's a crap shoot,dang I wish I still had my Nikon D50 and constant f2.8 lenseswall1.

AAHAHAHAHAH, sorry to get your hopes up Deano. You mean you couldn't tell from the pics that they were N scale? :mrgreen: These are my first weatherings in N scale lol.

Say, you were in N scale a few years back rite?

Hey Josh,don't know if you noticed,but I posted a picture of my new BLI C&NW SD40-2 so I'm thinking I'm ready to let go of my C&NW 8-40C.If you want it let me know,I'll take $45+shipping for it.

Nice work by the way Josh:thumb:.I only have one piece of C&NW freight at the moment and I'll try to post a picture of it sometime.

I also have a new BN engine on the way,it's a Kato Mid-Production SD40-2.I'll post a picture of it in the BNSF thread when I get it.I think you'll approve:thumb:.

They look real good, were the pics taken with flash turned on or is that natural errrrrrrr in door lighting?:mrgreen:

Thanks Lynn!! Yup Mikey's rite, thats all natural indoor lighting (well the window is just to the left lol) but that is not the flash. I try not to use the flash whenever possible :mrgreen:

You bet Josh,I can hold it for you.

The picture of the SD40-2 is in this thread also so check it out if you haven't already.

I'm really excited about the Kato,for a few reasons.1)It's a Kato.. 2)Everything is preassembled,a Godsend for me:mrgreen:..3)While I've never been a huge fan of the BN livery,I love the White face and the BN Herald on the front..and 4)Great detail and it has working alternating ditch lights that can be changed on the fly in DC or DCC.

Well I'm with Josh,I like the UP,but the BNSF is higher on my list then UP.I really like the C&NW though:thumb:.

Sorry for contaminating your UP thread with mention of the BN/BNSF Deano,I'l try to keep that out of here from now on!sign1

nscaler711:wav: , there was a time when I was into N scale:eeki: :winki: . i have quite a few REALLY NEAT N scale UP engines:thumb: . they are out there, just takes some looking to find them:winki: . i STILL have them ALL:thumb: , some are packed away in boxes at my dads house, and some are here at my house:winki: . some of the ones i really liked was my SD90/43MAC, U50B, Veranda turbine, FM H16-44, SD40-2's, and i even attempted to kitbash a "Big Blow"(3 unit turbine set:mrgreen: ), i finished it, but wasn't terribly happy with it, i think i could have done better:eek:ops: .

my dad and i had an N scale "empire" at his house a few years ago:thumb: , it was 95% COMPLETE....then we decided to go back to HO:toug: .

ANYWAYS, don't give up hope on AWESOME N scale UP engines, like i said, they ARE THERE...you just have to find them:winki: .

wanna know what the sad part is?
Union Pacific takes good care in how they're locomotives look and how they are maintained

Sorry, couldn't resist when I saw this mentioned. This fine example of the UP went by just the other day and here is UP "yellow"???

Cheepers! That locos' done lots of work! and hasn't had time to get a bath!! I wonder what it would cost the UP- or any railway for that matter- to keep their fleet of locos squeeky clean?
