Lee, that's exactly why I like this lighting approach.

Bob, they're actually sitting in piles around the basement. Some are getting reused, then I'm ripping into the boxes to do more. The next step is actually prepping some of my underbrush material though.

Eric, thanks. I'd never even consider adding a blue sky though. Take a look at the following photos for what I'm trying to capture:

@Ed Kapuscinski I’m looking for relatively modern pics of the NCR - like what it would have looked like near abandonment.  Do you have anything?

The CRHS website should have a series of photos I took between Lutherville and Cockeysville when cr operated an experimental conveyor train to the quarry.  This was mid to late 80s just before the light rail was built.

I never did have an engineering thread for this thing, mostly because I'm ashamed of how long it'd be between updates.

Right, so he puts it out on the N Scale board where it's more visible... :facepalm: :trollface:
