Re: 4X8 layouts - Green_Elite_Cab - 12-23-2014 Cool SEPTA bus! I wish those buses were more readily available. I have one of the NJ Transit ones, I'd like more, but it seems like most of the time people are gouging for those models. I've seen people ask over $100 for one of them. I think I got mine for $15. Gotta keep my eyes out for a few SEPTA buses. Re: 4X8 layouts - kamerad47 - 12-23-2014 I want a NJT bus But will not pay that $$$ (sept bus 5 bucks) I bought the whole thing station, platform (has lights), bus & caboose for 12 bucks !!!! Re: 4X8 layouts - kamerad47 - 12-28-2014 Here is some pics of the hi-way viaduct that divides the PRT & the NJT/NS main line at the one end of the layout , it also hides a portable staging yard. You can start to see where the PRT connects to the main line (NJT) where it runs on it to a interchange track where NS delivers cars too !!! the whole viaduct is made out of cardboard pizza boxes !! still a work in progress!!!! :o hock: Re: 4X8 layouts - kamerad47 - 01-19-2015 Put some power poles up & some protection in the Dundee transload yard !!!! :o hock: Re: 4X8 layouts - kamerad47 - 04-26-2015 Here is a couple of pic's of the work I've done on PRT 1st st. yard complex , they're 2 companies that receive cars here , The big building is Coastal Recycling the receive high sided gons for C&D loading .
