While messing with Nn3 and HOn30 I was thinking (with tape measure in hand) how to fit in some On30 then I turned around and realized I had started building an N scale layout. So I scraped the paint off the railheads and ran my first whole trains.

Chris, Very nice. Only problem I see, where is your caboose on that hopper train? On a side note, very nice ALCO ABBA FA and FB unit lashup. Remember, Pre-1983, it wasn't a train until a caboose was attached to the rear to carry the markers

So just a new stock MT floor, but with Atlas trucks, and it sits at the correct height?
I have the same car so I'm interested in doing a similar upgrade.

A how-to article will be in the next issue of NSR, which should be on the newsstands in a couple of weeks.

Only own one Erie caboose    I have 3 more built, but no decals yet...

You had a bay window, but you gave it away.

That looks great. Is it scratchbuilt, or a kit (whose)?


Hmm... I kitbashed a
brick outhouse out of a
Walthers Car Shop Bldg.
I think I put too many
windows in it...

...Caught a set of F7s on Fish Creek Viaduct.  Still a-lot to be done.  Especially the backdrop.
