Hello list. As I'm new to this forum I thought I would share some of the older photos I have of my dioramas. We are moving to a new home at the end of the month and the dioramas were designed to be incorporated into the new layout. The dioramas are 2' X 4' and are all made from 2" extruded styrofoam. It is HO scale. They were all built in the last year.
The line is the newly formed Madison Central of Wisconsin(MadCoW) and it is spun off from lines eminating from Madison Wisconsin.
The following is from the Dachshundville diorama based on a small mid-western granger town.
A warm summer day finds the local boys touching up their canvas as GP30 #822 rolls west.
These 'city-slickers' won't get anything past ole Joe at the feedmill!
EX-CNW 5024A leads the Guernsey '400' through Dachshundville at highway 14.
In a shot taken a few years back, CNW GP-9 #1755 leads the Ableman turn through town.
Commuter service F-7's find their way to a shippers' special with customers and their families.
You can bet the kids in the back of the '55 chevy are waiting to wave to the conductor on the caboose!
A couple of EMD four axle units prepare to cross the Little Tiddle River.
CNW GP-35 #845 leads a westbound manifest through Dachshundville.
Looks like lil' Oscar has to wait for the MadCow at highway 14.
Even though the fallen flag is still flying, the train is operated by MadCoW crews.
Well that's about all I have for this diorama. More to come from the others I have built. As mentioned construction begins this fall. Hope you enjoyed the tour.
See Ya
Johnny
