    Putting signs on buildings?

    I use paper signs printed on thin paper, then sand them thinner and adhere them to the wall using white glue, that way it's easier to work it into the bricks. Either that or I merely paint it on.

    Anyone know where I can buy HO scale birds?

    Wow! Those are tiny! A far cry from the ones I made out of clay (which later got mysteriously lost in a play-doh ball). Anyone know what's Washington's official bird?

    Another Pair Of Gimmick Shots

    Thanks for your comments folks! And regarding the train's position, it was moving at full speed- for each picture the train made 2 1/2 laps around the layout.

    Impending death

    I was right! It's from a Worth1000 contest: http://www.worth1000.com/cache/gallery/contestcache.asp?contest_id=1570 Many hoax pictures come from there. I used to participate, but It got a bit tiresome.

    Impending death

    I think it comes from a photoshop contest at Worth1000.com. Even if it doesn't come from there it definitely looks photoshopped.

    Another Pair Of Gimmick Shots

    What do you do when the lights in the layout room burn out? The light beams are actually a pair of heavyweight cars pulled by a slow doodlebug.

    I guess a GE 44 ton diesel cold handle those cars, but I don't think the PRR had them during those years. Sometimes railroads assigned some older moguls , or similar engines, for switching duties.
