Awwww.....what a cute kangaroo cool trains too

And here i thought he was like that naturally... :p

I concur with the above....rip that crap up and get some plywood.....i use 1/2 inch G1S supported all around the edges. No middle support (on a 3x6 layout) and i got no problems!

DCC is both DC and AC...there is constantly about 18-volts DC to the track, hence the constant lighting, amoung other things. DCC, is an AC "signal" sent via the track to the decoder...the decoder converts (or decodes, hence the name) that signal and moves the locomotive or shuts the lights off...

So, do you intend to model it dripping wet, with fish around it, covered in algee and sea weed? OR do you plan to model it BEFORE the incident? **smirk**

Steve, no problem with that, thanks for telling me. IF you are going to share them with anyone, do me a favor and tell the people they're mine. Other then that, enjoy...i got my desktop set for the shot of Peter and I on the GP40MC catwalk. Soon, however, it'll be changed for a scene from...

My congratulations to RailRon on his 1000th post (as of now, 1001) You must have missed me on the A-board...1375 posts in under 10 months!

:confused: :confused: Uhhh, dude...who's Chris? lol

Okay, the following VERY long story is the trip i just recently took from Falmouth-Boston via Yarmouth and Portland. I left August 10th and returned on August 16th. I'll basically tell the story, with a picture thrown in for good measure every paragraph or so (be warned...about 100 pictures in...

Only 7 Feet? Wow...thats short. Are the cross-bucks to-scale? and the lights? A real bell would be FAR too big, so i would suggest a Fire-alarm or something like that...though that might be too big as well. I'm debating, if i can find all the stuff, working and to-scale crossbucks with all...

I beg to differ...some N scale is more expensive, BUT most of the stuff is less then HO and some is the same as HO. I'm bias as i model N, but i prefer it to HO. From 1 teen to another... (i'm 15) welcome!

i would love to see that. Dare ya to model it!! :D :thumb: :eek:

Ohhhh.... Here i thought u wanted to see what was under my benchwork :eek: :cry: The squares of carpet is a good idea...i got a really sh***y carpet under my layout, so i don't worry about it. Andrew Reid

Ahhhh....nice shots! Ontario Northland? Makes it even better!

Hahahah!! Nice shots! What is the new item that yur trying to show off to use without bragging about! **wink Wink**

Quite easy to tell, IMHO, there was one dead give-away...the mold-plastic-injection points on the door. That was a dead giveway. Upon closer inspection, i can see "piled" paint on the white lettering. My guess is this is a custom painted/detailed boxcar...looks kinda "BNish" but i'm not...

Wow...thanks alot guys...i'll add this to my groowing list of stops... Going August 10th to 15th...still lookin to meet some people!

Thats not what the Trackside guide for 2004 says, nor is that how the crew that brought the GMD1u from Halifax say that. i asked about the 'u' and they gave me the story...clearly saying most GMD1's and all the 1400 was A1A They and i might be wrong though

so i should avoid boston at all costs, or see it at all costs? **Siderod thinks he's confused, then realizes he's too tired to be confused**

i hate to nitpick, but in all truth, those are GMD1u's...rebuilt in 1988-1990. Remotored, rewired, rebuilt almost completely and demoted so to speak, from A1A-A1A trucked to a B-B configuration...we got sister-unit 1423 runnin the WHRC shortline near my place. All in all, great pics! What...
