Weekend Update 11/2/2014

Cody:  My first thought was that you were modeling a lake, and that was a picture of the train reflected in it.  It took another look to see that it was actually upside down...

My digital camera would do the same thing if I held it upside down.  The photo orientation on it is determined by the camera orientation, not true vertical.  I assume your phone, like most modern ones, should determine its true orientation and adjust the picture, so maybe there's something not quite right in it.

My Amazon Fire has photos with the correct orientation and the movies are upside down. Used MS Movie Maker to get the movies right.

Got two 36ft wood boxcars finished and gave them an inagural sit on a module.

The local ducks into the hole at Brantlee's while the 3pm passenger takes priority.

Greg,

Thanks very much. Indeed if I had bought it all at once it would have cost a fortune. Thankfully over time I have amassed enough parts to build pretty much very loco I ever plan to. It's perfect because finances are too tight for projects like these nowa days but I have the stockpile to keep working with.

The last addition will be Locsound for sure but I only have one, and would need about 30 so that'll have to wait.

I'll get out there again one day.

Not really a weekend update, however a couple of weekends work to finish my custom modified BLMA radio tower. I took the liberty of trying a few different ideas to see if they worked. Example being the tower mounted dish, cell antennas and wrapping ribbon walkway mesh. Gosh it was frustrating at times, however I'm pleased with my result. Something that is all mine that started off from a normal kit.

If you like 36' NH wood boxcars you should check out the Clover House dry transfer sets for those cars. Those would be the pre-1930 scheme. Also MicroScale NH Freight decals have lettering for the pre-1930 hopper car version.
