It's the old Chrome "insecure site" problem again.  It worked for me earlier today, but somehow my browser got the setting reset.  On a PC you can fix it, on a tablet or phone you cannot.

I'm not using Chrome and randgust is the only one that appears to be affected. I see everyone else's photos and avatars.

He is linking photo's from a private server, not uploading to the Railwire service. His server has expired Security Credentials.

Copy and paste the URL in Internet Explorer - you will see the pictures. This won't work for the Macs as far as I can tell.

First, on Edge, click the padlock to the left of the URL and that will turn off the nuisance security on 'non-secure images' just for this site.

Now, here's the latest progress.   First, two shots prior to prime - the detail parts are archer louvers, and some specific details requested from Tom on the number boards (Detail Associates), stacks/spark arrestors and headlights (Miniatures by Eric), Plow (miniatures by Eric) and some other goodies to be added post-paint.  You can see what was added all around pretty clearly here.   And all the handrail and grab holes are pre-drilled.  The headlights have LED's inserted and have been tested.





Now, somewhat as a salute to the way people are used to looking at shells on Shapeways, here's the way mine looks post-primer:





Painting has started today.

I can't see them either and I'm not getting URL's just space between the captions and it's only on randgusts posts.

That is because your browser is simply not displaying and non-secure contents.  There are multiple threads (basically saying the same thing) in the Admin forum, about how to fix this.  The browser developers decided to make the choice for their users as to what to consider unsafe by default.

I looked everywhere for my old NW2 parts and can't find them. I'm afraid I'm out of this project until Kato decided to do another run.

I may have some too soon. I think I located some KATO NW2 parts.

I really need an engineering drawing for this thing. Anyone know where to get one?
