Now if there's a thread on unfinished projects, I'll break out the camera.  :)

Start one. Maybe it will motivate people to finish their projects.

Outstanding work! - I've tried and failed to get my Pillsbury hopper to look like the prototype I shot in Calgary several years ago but you nailed it. The SOO cars are bang on as well.

Really great work, thanks for the inspiration.
Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

Thanks for the kind words guys. It's an ongoing learning process for me and I know I'll pick up some good ideas/techniques on this forum.


Allen, good to hear from you too my friend!

OTTO: Thanks very much for the kind words and warm welcome.

ROD: Thank you too for checking these out. My main focus is the Santa Fe but the SOO stuff is hard to resist when it comes to weathering.

Some really nice models on here fellas. Being a newby here and finally figuring out the posting photos thing I thought I'd add some of mine.
First post I'll start with some Milwaukee Road.

Some misc.stuff. The PC and Conrail boxes are old LifeLike Evans cars that I replaced stirrups and crossover platforms on and then used Bryan Bussey's beautiful cushioned underframes on.
