a guy did them for fund raising he claimed he molded and painted them him self. your right tho never have too much..... oh and for fence how about window screen painted construction orange?????? now i got to try it way too go joshsign1
sign1 sign1 sign1 Hahahahahahahahahahah
Now you are givin me all sorts of ideas. I have to try to make those barrels somehow. I think I might have to try to use the caps on the pencils, you no the metal drum. They might work good. As for the fence, yes I am goin to have to do that too. Also the coffee stirs to, and the lumber. think I might use toothpicks to matches.
Got any ideas for plywood stacks????

yea thats crazy good luck tho. altho i did get some building supply from work some styrine ( the stuff that creamer cups are made with that you will find at diners)
Ya, I think it might be a pretty crazy one. But it would only cost about $150.00 to maybe $200.00. OK THATS STILL A-LOTsign1 but i think that it would look so dam cool.
What do you use for your roads??
I put some black sand paper down on my layout but you can see were every piece is connected and theres a lot of them.
So I was thinking of getting the flexable road made by Busch. It says its very flexible and goes round curves nicely and it comes in big rolls, that way, I will have less seems to cover up.

I picked up a catalogue at a train show last fall: they have some interesting items in Hydrocal and a few in white metal. They also carry parts from many manufacturers like Tichy, Grandt Line and Juneco.
The Company is basically a one-man operation, run by Brian Martin. You can contact him by 'phone or fax: (905) 549-5054

As for the other one, i am going to have to check them out to. Sounds like they could have some nice things.
Anyone else with loads??? Lets make this so that no-one has to think what to make for loads on their flats and trailers, all they have to do is look at these few pages.

www.horailroad.com has cinder blocks for pallets that could make a nice load, or at least a trackside industry...

Hey Trucklover, I get my loads from this place. Fairly reasonable. www.beckermodeltrainsupply.com in Minnesota. He has a ton of different loads and sizes.
Sorry Truck, the web site I posted earlier doesn't work. If you type in Becker Model Train you'll find it.
