An DW&P car,don't see those too often anymore.I used to live about 30 yards from the small yard they had in West Duluth.It had been closed a few years,but the roundhouse was still there and the other structures they used for maintenance were still there also.They had just closed it down a few...

Wow!You finally have some updates,what took so long?j/k

I certainly remember the night it happened,I was 9 years old and it was plastered all over the TV.Of course living in Duluth it was a huge story in these parts.I could only imagine the coverage it would have received today with the internet and cable/dish TV.

Thanks Kevin! REALLY sorry for the late reply,I took off again. More pictures would be nice!

I did not realize that,thanks for the info Wayne:thumb:.Regardless,I miss the old color scheme,the new generic schemes that have been given to the IC,DWP,WC and DM&IR by the CN really suck.

Square,for the same reasons already stated above.

Busy!with my summer hobby:thumb:. Great work Kevin,everything looks fantastic! As you know we moved and the new house does not have a full basement so I have no room at the moment to do anything big.I do however plan on sending in my Yellowstone to be painted and have sound installed in time...

Nice! I've been thinking of starting collecting that kind of DM&IR stuff also. Chris

You need to call the issuer of the card you used ASAP,if they're worth a darn they'll get your money back.I would not trust these guys and I don't understand why they're still in business. Hope it works out well for you. Chris

I wasn't going to name names,but have you visited the Atlas forums?Holy I have never seen more bashing anywhere and for the smallest things.The bashing of a very good product and the person who bought it because a railing looks too thick or the sound isn't exactly right or there's too much space...

Well,I'm thinking about joining as it seems like a decent site and shouldn't be judged by a few comments in the one thread I actually read.This is the first and only site I've joined so I'm comfortable here,but there are a couple I have come across that seem like good sites.I can't remember the...

Seems like a decent enough site although with a bit more "brashness" then what I'm used to here.One of the threads I read there was some "The Gauge" bashing which I don't understand,but to each his own I guess and it doesn't really bother me.I see Tetters joined today,I wonder how he likes it so...

The move was pretty good and no we didn't move TOO far away.We were renting a house at 35 Riverside Dr. and we bought the house at 31 Riverside Dr. just a couple of doors down:). There is a really large crawl space in the basement with a ton of room,but it will take a lot of work to get it up...

Very nice progress so far Kevin!I haven't been keeping up on it lately as we were busy moving into our new home the past couple weeks. Hope you are able to find enough time for your layout,it's coming along nicely.Don't forget to keep me informed on your plans to come up here and do some DM&IR...

I've heard good things about Wholesale Trains,but have not used them as of yet.Here's a good place also... Ulrich Models Hobby Store Home Page Very good experience with them.The owner actually won an item of mine on Ebay and we ended up talking a bit,very nice and personable guy. Chris

Internet Trains Customer Ratings, Reviews and Prices at ResellerRatings Not a lot of ratings,but enough to get an idea what kind of business they are.Do a Google search for them and you will not feel alone. Chris

An 2-4-0 would be a "Porter" type steam engine.If it's an 2-4-2 it would be a "Columbian"type engine.I can't tell for sure but it looks like a 2-4-0 to me. Chris

It only makes sense that you pronounce it "JEEP" since like it's WW2 namesake was built to be an general-purpose vehicle.That's my take on it and if someone doesn't like it they can kiss my behind:). Chris

Everything looks great Kevin! Maybe I'll have to get an undecorated PCM SD7 or BLI SD9 and have you do one up for me;). Chris
