    All sorts of Bridges

    Great thread interurben - I'm stuck right now as I have two bridges to model before work can proceed on the layout. And I my bridge-making skills are not so good. I've got a couple of shots sitting at home that I'll contribute to this thread eventually. You drive for the TTC Chris...

    Woodland Scenics Water

    I've used the stuff, and I really like it - although it didn't turn out the best for me. I had fogging too, but it went away eventually. For me, the best thing about this product is that it doesn't STINK to high heaven! A big consideration when you're in a 600sq. ft. apartment, and aren't...

    What are you asking Santa for?

    I picked up a re-released Kato SD40 on the weekend as a sort of early Christmas present to myself. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. I don't usually ask for train stuff for Christmas - too difficult for most of my family to find the right stuff.

    Out and about in Ontario

    Member of the train crew heads out to throw the switch allowing 5822 to take the siding at Warren. I was informed the meet was at least an hour away, so I didn't stick around as it was just a little cold, and my wife was waiting in the car :D
