Thanks Marty; Well, more scenery is under construction as we speak, so hopefully I can take some more photos real soon! I've seen photos of your layout and am very impressed as well.. Happy Halloween everyone! Jim ;) ;) ;)

Hey, thanks everyone... I wish I could claim ownership of these beautiful locos, but, alas, they are not mine. As Gary has pointed out, they were just visiting with temporary trackage rights... Fun stuff... Jim ;)

Looks great, Ed!!! I'm gettin' hungry for a slice... Jim:cool:

Finally, rolling by a nice string of boxcars...

And again; coming off the back line at MC Cabin...

And the next one, rolling by Abbott's farm......

Hello all; Well, here are some more photos of some doubleheaded Erie Berkshires; Gary, sorry it took so long to post these... Enjoy, all... Jim ;)

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful... Jim :cool:

Dick; I'm surprised that no one has mentioned the May 2003 Issue of Railroad Model Craftsman; on p. 80 of that issue there begins an article titled "Kitbashing a Bangor & Aroostook Caboose". This is for an HO model but you may find some very useful tips and photos... Jim Harr :cool:

This really has been a fascinating thread! Val, your mini-scene looks great - can't wait to see more! Blake - fantastic shots of Bethlehem Steel! What a place... Jim :cool:

Nice work, Ralph! I like your use of the fencepost caps. Great job... I'm a big fan of rail-marine ops... Jim :cool: :cool: :cool:

They also make... a great Dodge pick-up truck ;) Here's a photo... Jim

Hi Gang; As I mentioned in my reply to Val's post re: weathering a truck, Roco makes a great VW fastback sedan model that is great for 60's and later modelers. Here's a photo. ;) Jim :cool:

Val; I have to agree with Ralph's assessment of that loading dock with it's interior.. You really nailed it - I love it! Jim :cool:

Blake; You know I've always been partial to this model! I think it's painted just fine; but, the caliber of your work now will eclipse your older work, for sure... I Look forward to the results! Jim :cool:
