I think you cut the door openings yourself to suit whatever spacing you choose.... Been a while since I bought new Pikestuff...

Nicely done VanBee! Any more pictures of your layout?

Is it just me, or do all Shur-Gain mills look that beat up? :)

There's a standard for so many good ties per mile to maintain a certain class of track....

Who are the house kits themselves by? I'm guessing that the duplex has been somewhat kitbashed to give individuality to each half?

That's some pretty liberal modifications of Ontario geography! Awesome pictures Wayne. :)

There are actually 2 different trains. 1 goes through Canada, and the other (that I saw) goes through southern Ontario and the US.

I saw it last night in Woodstock. This was my first time seeing it up close. I put my pictures in the weekly photo thread. I tell ya, CPR has some real class, putting on a show like this and making a donation to the local Salvation Army for their work with the local food bank.

Rapido trains is also making CN signage in HO scale.

Please do post pics! :)

I think only stuff still in Soo paint is referred to as Soo locomotives, especially the SD60's, because their numbers conflict with CP numbers. (6000-6064) But it's definitely Soo heritage, given the white numberboard, double rear headlight, and lack of dynamic brakes.

Or try the CPR or cpsig yahoo groups, especially the cpsig group. There's a wealth of historical info there.

"The Old Station French Restaurant"! I love it!
