Weekly photo fun 10/31/08

Welcome back...Packer.
Great pics this week guys and gals

Almost done with S&W's SD35 high nose. Some touch up paint, a few more detail parts and handrails.
Gave it a test run tonight. Ran smooth, but the lights didn't work.
Its an Atlas model and I run straight DC. Is there something I missed?

Brownie Cameras still work in Stanleyille

:killer:Hey SlekJR
You are correct I told Rufus to quick fooling around with that funny camera from across the ocean and get out the Brownie for a proper 1929 Black and White.
Rufus was just able to get the train as it was leaving town.

Detective investigates apparent crime scene on C&S RR

Did he realize he had crime scene photos here? Looks like someone is being thrown off the train. It looks like a nasty place to get off too. I hope she wasn't hurt too seriously:mrgreen:
Pretty good B&W shot too.
Charlie
:wave:Hi Charlie yep there was something strange going on on that train as it left town. They sent for detective Gomshu from over in Nashville to investigate. Seems the only way he could get up in the holler was to "surf" the flats of a logger headin' up in to the mountains.

Wayne, I was pondering the possibility of making that factory a Gern facility. Since the Board of directors seems to approve expansion into the Hudson valley i just might!

Doctor G...that trackside shack is fantastic!

Sunday 11-2-08 was my Z scale layout's first public outing.The little fella was a purrfect gentleman :mrgreen:

The MTL GP35 ran for 5 hours nonstop with absolutely no problems,to say the least I was/am a happy camper.
 
Great layout there Catt, I've wondered about going Z scale, but I'll stick w/ N for now, much cheaper and more products avalable.
 
Railfanning - the mouse

The boys are up railfanning on Robin's Road. When they heard that the Lily Belle was bringing a train up, they loaded everything they had on the RV.
Then the work train came through.
Finally Emily brought her train through.

(Paradox: the scenery in the first shot is OO scale, but the train is 1:12)

Great job. I would never ever ever show a picture that close up of my work. I think that rates right up top with the best modelers there are. Post more when the rest of the parts are on.:thumb::thumb::thumb:
Charlie

Thanks Guys, great pics everyone:thumb::thumb: This is one of my favorite threads:mrgreen:

Charlie, I guess that is one of the hazards of my new camera, it shows everything:eek::oops:
