Stripes, eggszactly!,my nephew,who is just getting started said just the other day that he looks at everything differently now,as in "what can this be"

S bin a long time but that poll about scenry materials got me to dig out the tripod again. I also wanted to show off my new{?}RDC's NONE of the scenery is from a store,all natural and homade,the buildings are mapboard,some have sandpaper shingles,the windows are celofane from...

I almost said gather but that would only be half right,I do gather,but I grind and puree too. In the four{or so}years I've been doing this I have bought NO scenic materials .I blend/paint my own ground foam and my trees are all plant based,because {a}the nearest hobby shop is a four hour...

Ozzy:Yesser that one is a '68 front frame,'72 forks '70 engone,well the cases are '70 the rest is stuff i had laying arround,I also have a '65 T120 and m'lady has a "'69" T120.Pm me off site I love talkin' bikes 60103:The "real" coach has eleven windows ,the Athearn has ten.The real combine...

It's a good thing I'm lenient about details.I went to show on the weekend{17th}and was lucky enough to find two RDC's in my price range{nearly free}looked on my favorite site for CN photo's only to find out that the windows are wrong on both,I didn't notice this detail 'till I'd painted them...

I've used lots of natural stuff and have had no problems in four years,but I gotta say I use cut up brown twine for chaff on my barn floors.I used glycerin when I first started to "preserve" my trees but being a slob,got it on the track,VERY BAD!! I don't know about nc rail,but I was using...

This came up on another site and the word is that there will NOT be a PC train set this year. The set that got me into this game was the PC "yard Bull".Y'still see them at shows for about $110

nice work! I really like the "cycle shop".

Doc,I must say that your work makes the best in MR look toylike. I can always find something wrong in the MR photo's{of course I'm picky with someone elses stuff}things like cars with no glass,not all the wheels touching the ground.Your attention to detail has been an inspiration for me since...

I probly shouldn't say anything 'cause I 'll jinx it, but I don't have that much trouble. A little history my empire is an around the room,I guess a shelf type,between one and four feet wide in the upstairs of my garage,about 22ft by 16. To be honest I don't run the trains as much as I...

Fantastic stuff !I like details like the forge,a lot of people don't know that real farmers had blacksmithing in their job discription. Glad you git rid of the "sitting on top of the ground"gap under the buildings. I use a lazy method,I simply trace a line around the building then "landscape"...

White Rose,uuummm, haven't seen that for a while.Fantastic shots

Why not??It doesn't make sense to do it but it would be no problem,simply hook both packs to one set of feeders

G'day from the right coast, can't have too many CN modelers. What time frame are you doing?

Colton, Jim ,88, You guys convinced me I'm right. The Murican Wally's hace better {more?}stuff. What about the upper-Canadian stores, do they have stuff close to HO?

I only have experience with the two local w-marts{Ilead a VERY sheltered life}and I only look for stuff in my era{'60s}but it does seem like the 'murican W-marts have a better selection. In the conversation I had with the manager ,he said that there are diferent size stores that have different...

Made my monthly trip to town today{ I live out in the sticks}and my first stop was Walmart toy section. There were some really nice 1/2 tons,a couple of mack junior's and a '56 ford, nice detail,opening doors and hoods only one thing ,they were 1:64. I talked to the manager once and he said...

yeah I know{about the lack of pic's}and I'm sick about it .I didn't get near as much done as I planned{insert excuses here}but when I have something photo-worthy I'll sender on in.

KIDDING I'm touched in so many ways
