Will lol don't compare me to nmra. I make my own guages etc and while I like what they say I tend to use my own ideas rather a lot. For instance I use 12 and 15 inch radius for O scale ;) Go figure eh? lol Also I measure from the inside rail and not the middle when I measure my radius. I do this...

Well Bill I stand corrected again. I suppose I can no longer trust those tv shows that tell us about railways around the world. Dang, and I so enjoyed them too. I was not aware of them lying to us. Weird. I wonder why they did that? Thanks again for setting me straight. Like a fool I trusted a...

Jess you are welcome. And so farin 5 forums theonly one to say anything nice about it. I feel like I wasted a lot of time making the blueprints etc now. Dang. Oh well. At least someone enjoyed it. Thanks again:)

I will pray for you Wilson that Jesus gets you a better job soon:)

I found that for an 8 foot wide body and 40 foot length I need to make a 3 inch wide clearance. Let me explain. I measure from the center of the rails to the outside 1.5 inches each way. This allows for the overhang of a long and wide car. I do this on my tight curves down to 15 inch radius as I...

I have been busy making a coal tower, water tower, sandhouse and of course the trestle. I am waiting for parts for most of these things, however I do have most of the coal tower done and so I thought I would let you guys have a look at it. The back part [the coal lift] is not done yet but the...

Praying for you and yours Steve.

Lynn, if it helps I have used Uleads Video Studio plus [the plus has fewer bugs among other things]. ANyhow, I edit a lot of home videos and it works great for me. Hope that helps. hey Naz, this is nuts, you are supposed to be an amatuer so stop it lol. Is it possible you could up load pics of...

naz ah ok lol :P hey your video on your thread rocks by the way :D

nice video, the waterfall looks even better. Good job :)

Naz um duh I know about the thumbnails. It is just that the pics they go to are kind of small is all. I have a fast connection and so i don't mind big pics. I prefer big pics actually. Even a one megapixel camera like I have can make a large picture for a typical monitor screen. Lynn, it might...

Hey Lynn, any chance of making the pictures bigger? I like them and all, but they are a bit small considering all the detail you have in them. As they are hosted by image shack the size should be malleable I would think. Anyhow, good stuff just the same. :)

ooooohhhh a gravel mine. I just thought your layout needed cleaning. Sheesh silly me LOL:D

Andrew, if you can find links to those I would appreciate that, thanks :)

weird, it posted before I was done. I wanted to say that: You know to be honest it actually sucks what you are doing. It sucks because now the rest of us have to bust our butts to catch up LOL. I just hope you slow down until us old timers can improve our skills to the level of your amateurish...

You know to be honest it acyually sucks what you are doing. It sucks because now the rest of us have

Once again, you have done a very fine job Steve. :)

6 feet by 4 feet On30, in my living room.

Looks good so far. Keep showing us pics. I would like to see it done. Good work :)

slekjr, that's why i always make a 3d model of my model. 99% of everything fits and works then. All the greats that I follow have made models of their models. ohn Allen is one I often mention. He modeled his whole basement, the workshop etc. He had his whole layout planned 20 years before he...
