Still trying to clear the workbench before I start the Next Big Thing. A Gulf tanker bashed from a Wiking tank trailer and a Trainworx cab. Plastruct lettering and Microscale decals.



The bridge and pavement was modeled by my friend Thom Placier, who has a YouTube channel documenting his shelf switching layout in N scale. A talented modeler.

Finished up a couple of buildings and a set of trucks I received from @rodsup9000 a while back.

The story you have just read is true.  Only the names have been changed to protect the innocent.  For example, Dave Foxx was referred to as Engineer Smith.

When events like this happen,  They always check for alcohol or other control substances use/abuse.

Project to take some time off from the layout build. Lance Mindheim had this picture on his Facebook page and
redirected me to the author yesterday. Sebastian SG in Europe. I am building a small scenic square and trying
to reproduce it in N Scale. I am painstankingly turning this into a project series on my YOU TUBE page.

Very nice work on this truck. The paint work looks really sharp and clean.

That bridge looks really good too, but shouldn't there not be a centre stripe in the road and why is the driver using both lanes ?

Single lane bridges were awfully common.

I wanted to show the truck on the bridge, but if I used the correct lane placement the bridge rail hid the lower half of it. Thanks for the compliments. I had no body lines on the back to do the color separation, it doesn’t look so good.




I’m going to try another application of ruby red gallery glass on the taillights. The camera is true critic.

VERY well done Wolf.  The supporting scene shows them off well too.

Love that guy! I bought his Chessie (WM) SD-35 awhile back. Looking forward to his expansion.
