Very nice, Robin. :thumb: You do excellent work, very professional and polished looking. I really like the amount of operations that you've worked into the available space.

Beautiful structure there, Enjah, simply beautiful. Excellent modelling.

But if they're paying for it, they have the right to set the tone and rules, just as you would expect in your own home. Being on the internet is not carte blanche to speak ones mind with impunity. Society as a whole still expects a modicum of civility towards others, even when not speaking...

I am determined to get more track laid in the branchline areas.

"Ring around the rosie, A pocket full of posies, Ashes, ashes, We all fall down!" Here's a little scene I completed tonight. Looks like little Leon is trying to tell his mother something important about his diaper, while his sisters are busy swinging each other around. The...

Thanks, fellas. Cabdriver - I plan to have individual switches for each structure on the layout so that I can control them individually. Don't have them hooked up yet, but that's the plan. :) My overall layout is based primarily on the ALCOA plant here in central Arkansas in the early...

Here's a pic showing some lighting I installed in the coke ovens of the industrial area that I'm working on.

Looks great, Frank! Very, very nice!

Here's some pics of a locomotive service building that I recently completed, using the Walthers Backshop kit. I built it as a flat instead of as a regular "box" building, leaving the back open. I plan to place it along the edge of the peninsula on my layout in the industrial area, so that I...

I was walking home tonight and happened to cut through the rail yard and saw the loading dock foreman, Mike, giving the night's work orders to Walt and TJ. Looks like Tom called in sick, so they're going to have their hands full getting all those boxcars unloaded before the morning shift...

Here's a pic showing the joint after I pulled the nails out and separated the joint. You can see how much the rails were trying to move against each other. When I laid the track back this summer, I butted the rails up against one another, so now it looks like I need to nip a little off and...

Ditto to what Dick said. I've used MBK several times for the $3.99 price per card of LL P2K wheelsets of 12. Great service.

We've had some pretty cold temperatures here the last few days, and my basement has gotten down in to the 50's. Apparently it's enough to cause the benchwork to contract somewhat and here's the results (see below). Obviously, I'm going to be spending some time the next few days cutting in some...

Great pics, Tom, love it.
