Hello all, Here's a chance to have an effect on the SNE (and likely give me more work). I have really struggled with the overall appearance of the layout when ...
... Ben, I thought I've seen pictures of an NEB&W GP38 in one of the magazines from before 1990. I believe it was one of the Atlas GP38's from the '70s. As...
Hey What I would do would be to build some large 6 or 7 story mills on the hill with a backdrop of sky benind it and add a stream with some falls to take your...

George, I do also -- but if I was going to model the 1980s I'd opt for the "reversed MEC" version -- it would be a lot easier than masking and painting all...

Marty, After viewing the files and if this is your regular viewing height (i.e. the picture was not taken on a step ladder), then I do like the short sky ...
Jeremy, Thanks for the input. I took the photo from my normal viewing height, so that's how you see that standing in the room. Yes, there will be a fair number...

I like both paint schemes, but I like the MEC -like version better. Seeing a D&H style scheme in eastern CT and MA seems just wrong, somehow. Craig Bisgeier ...
I liked the low skyboard too; good scenic separation without completely obscuring the other half of the basement. A good compromise and keeps the space from...
I agree, the low sky backdrop mockup looks good. I've had good experiences using styrene sheet in this manner. What will you do on the other side of the...

Pete, I agree. In fact, after I finished mocking up the scene on the computer I took one look and figured "this is a no brainer." But, since I'd already mocked...
