What?????? Don't you get enough coming down stairs and breaking into my snack drawer? I'm surprised you didn't see the remote then. It was right under the bag of Fun Size Twixt bars.

Hey guys...... How come I found the remote for Mikeys' TV in my desk drawer?

Can't do either, tunnels or Rio Grande. But..I have been working on these. Reassembling Southwick and Winsted SD35. Its an Atlas model. Left the handrails in my basement workshop, and I will replace the supplied Atlas grabs with Details West. And..decaling the replacement power for the...

I used to work a job, twelve hour shifts, two days on, two days off, every other weekend, three straight days. The second day of my two days off was ususally the prime-time for modeling, the first was for sleep. Since my layout is in the attic, during the summer it was early in the morning...

I lost the link..... Thanks for posting it Catt.

You can put ballast on Bachmann E-Z track, but its still E-Z track. Sorry JW...Couldn't resist.......

Was try all day yesterday to get more than one post in. But the Gauge was acting funny. Anyway, here's S&W GP38-2 sitting next to Ore Hill. The track behind it is the Central New England main. There will be a small interchange yard in this area also.

Thanks guys for the concern guys. Ore Hill survived the fall in pretty good shape.(Testament to my construction???) A couple of minutes, couple drops of Testors, and it was good as new. I did make a change though. The station sign looked a little big, and blocked the frieght door, so I moved it...

And with European rolling stock to boot! Nice pics again thsi week folks!

And the damaged Ore Hill, finally close to being part of the Central New England! Actually, the CNE main will run behind the station, The Southwick and Winsted will run up front.

Well, that didn't stop me. Since the damage was repairable, I just kept chugging along. Heres' the shelf with cork for shims.

Tonight, I was working on incorparating my Ore Hill scratchbuild into my layout.This was one of my prized scratchbuilds(see:http://www.zealot.com/forum/showthread.php?t=111635&highlight=hill) Well, while trying to take measurements, and holding it up, it slipped out of my hand and......

Heee Heee.....Good one. The owner and customers of your favorite LHS yell your name when you first walk in, like they did in the TV show Cheers for Norm......too much

I just like trains.......... OK...You caught me. Had to be growing up near the New Haven's Berkshire Division main. Dad would take us all down to the tracks and watch the trains. At the time, early sixties (1960's....I know someone was thinking 1800's...I'm not that old!) the NH was running...

Starting to look great. Can't wait to see the finished project! By the way...Does that ruler say The Torrington Company? I used to work there a couple of years ago at their(DUH!) Torrington plant. Before they were bought by Timken and RBC.

Central New England east bound mixed freight with "retro paint" SD70 leading heads downgrade on its way into Winsted. CDOT's Litchfield Hills commuter waits its turn off in the distance on the Mad River passing siding.

You forget your wife's(girlfriends) birthday, but you can remember the day the very first Union Pacific "Big Boy" hit the rails....

It does look excellent! Maybe thats why Model Railroader did a piece on it back in January.

With what you're doing, the risk all military men and women take, putting your lives on the line, and especially now that from what I gather on the news, things are starting to ramp up.... I have no problem with those in uniform posting pics here. I think other members will agree with me.

I know what you mean. They make some nice modern versions of big rigs like Trucklover shows us, but when it comes to everyday cars, and pick-ups, the manufacturers fall short. It would be nice to see some of the usual "Blue Collar" cars, we see everyday, and not the high end "Yuppie", and "Over...
