Congrats, Don!aussie balloon6 Guess this means a big pay raise, huh? :D

Thanks guys! :) Glen, I just cut scale 4x8 sheets from regular aluminum foil, & then lay them on a piece of Evergreen corrugated siding, rub my finger over the foil, & voila...corrugated metal!

I got no problem coughing those up...I like all those things too! (weeelll...maybe not the dress...:D :D :D :D )

Great work, Will! That backdrop really adds to the scene! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

Thanks guys! :) I don't know how much I'm going to be able to get done before the deadline, but I'd like to at least finish the roof... I've started adding the corrugated roofing...I'll still need to paint & weather it...

I think he means the power plant smokestack that is lying on its side in a couple of the photos...?

Looking forward to it Larry! :thumb: btw...what's "the bet"?

Exactly what is it that you don't like about it, Don? Is it something you could change with some weathering, or paint? Or do you just not like the whole look of it? Personally, I kind of like it because it's unusual...most model RR's have similar paved streets & concrete sidewalks, I guess...

I wish I could send you some of this Ohio Valley weather, Don...we've been getting doused for a couple of days now! 143 DAYS?! I can't imagine that! We have dry periods in the summer here...we went 7 weeks one year...that's a major drought in KY...we lost a lot of trees that year... Winter time...

Isn't the diesel-electric locomotive the original "hybrid"?

Hi Neil! I think Fred answered your questions pretty well, but since I'm currently building an HOn30 layout, I'll add my 2 cents worth on that... So far, I've bashed all my eqipment out of N scale stuff...I build everything to a width of 7', & length ranges from 12 to 23 feet...I also use N...

Tom, It's great to see all these famous scenes of yours being linked up together! Now that you have this well-honed photographer's eye, it's going to be really cool to see what you come up with to "fill in the blanks", so to speak! It's looking great! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

You've done a really great job there, Don! Santa Maria looks like a very busy little town...(it's nice that the town progress hasn't been detered by the inter-planetary presence! :D ) You've totally left me eating your dust with this layout party! You've made some amazing progress! btw...those...

Thanks Don! :D (Hey, what's a little scale difference between friends, huh? sign1 ) I got more of a close-up picture showing some more of the interior...

Well, I FINALY did some work on the sawmill...:rolleyes: I've gotten side-tracked by too many other projects...(some RR, & some not) I've gotten the steam plant done & in place...& now I've started on the roof...it's just cardstock at this stage...I'm planning on covering it with some...

Wow, Ray! You're doing some amazing work there, my friend! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: I need to fly you out to KY to work on some of my "clunkers"! :D

Looks good so far! Keep those pictures coming! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: Is the bridge over the tracks going to be a road, or rail? Also, what type of bridge are you considering building over the stream?
