    Adios To All My Gauge Friends!

    Charlie, I've always enjoyed seeing the photos of your great N-scale layout and your excellent kitbashes! (More than once, I've referred to you as the "Art Curren of N scale.")

    Congrats to Casey: You won!

    Thanks, guys. All of the dioramas are excellent, and I know that made for some difficult decisons at voting time. But that's so typical of the Gauge's photo contests: excellent photos of excellent modeling by all of the contestants month in and month out!

    Weathering Corrugated Aluminum HELP PLEASE

    Fred, the roofing is corrugated aluminum. It's just a different gauge and corrugation pattern than the typical Campbell's stuff.

    Weathering Corrugated Aluminum HELP PLEASE

    Thanks, Jon. As for the foreceps, no, I still use them on Saturdays. One look at them and most "patients" are discouraged enough to cancel their surgery. It gets me out on the water that much quicker.:D :D :D

    NMRA Webmaster's Coice

    Way to go, Paul! :thumb: Just be prepared for a huge increase in traffic to your site. Mine was named the Webmaster's Choice last November, and I had almost 3500 visitors during that month alone! I was really surprised also by the number of emails I received in November as a result. They...

    Daydreaming About On30

    Charlie, what you're describing sounds a good deal like the Mann's Creek Rwy. It was a narrow gauge coal, lumber, and coke hauler with less than 80 miles of trackage through the New River Gorge in West Virginia. It ran Shays until its demise in 1955, and interchanged with the C&O at Sewell, W...
