  loft layout
Posted by: mr bachmann - 12-29-2021, 03:46 PM - Forum: Layouts - Replies (40)

in the late 1960's my layout was built in the loft , British outline to the UK scale of 00 (1-76) , and the flexi code 100 Peco track was laid on foam underlay , now some years later the track & underlay has been lifted , all track & points got a couple of days soak in the bath tub .
Dried and cleaned track has been re-laid and now my first attempt at balasting (Woodlands)

I created this pic MANY MANY years ago, back when most of us were all on the Zealot forum, WOW, A blast from the past Icon_e_biggrin . ANYWAYS, I seen this in my files and thought I would bring it back this year, probably from 12-15? years ago.

Merry Christmas!

  Two more cars in the roster
Posted by: CNR5103 - 12-21-2021, 09:28 AM - Forum: HO Modeling - Replies (7)

Some photos of two cars which were added to the roster recently.

A CP Double Door 40' Boxcar.  This is a Sylvan Scale Models kit.  Although it has an End door, I lettered it after it has been sent to General Service.

   

   

   


A CN Double Door 40, Automobile Boxcar with an End door.  Also a Sylvan Scale Models kit.

  PETER JUENGST(sumpter250) - Burial at Sea
Posted by: ezdays - 12-19-2021, 07:18 AM - Forum: Sumpter250 - Replies (12)

This was sent to me by Pete's daughter, Heather. Please take the time to view this service aboard ship. Pete spent his life in the service of our country and it is fitting that they honor him in this way. Pete was a friend to us all and went out of his way to visit those of us here that he could. It was a pleasure knowing him and he will be missed. It is also touching to know that members of the US Navy  still take the time to do this.

WPMA-40 eases to a stop in Mannheim Yard after completing it's daily run.  The crewman will uncouple the engine, which will then head over to the service track.
