Progress... Capitol Fuel Oil is nearly complete--





the rather tricky incline for South Olden Avenue is done--



and TTC #3 is lettered--



Plus the layout is wired and #3 runs nicely: Not a valid vimeo URL

Fantastic work! And even better pics/video. I love the photographic part of this hobby as much as the building and operations and your layouts are always great inspiration.  8)

I love your weedy overgrown track!  What products did you use for your grass and weeds??  Cool video effects!

I never even thought of using Will's kit for a coal/oil office and I have it sitting here  :facepalm:

Amazing work as always, DKS!  I particularly love the Unitrack treatment.

I'll add to the compliments.

The excellent scenery treatment certainly diminishes the fact that it's Unitrak.
I loved the 8mm movie. Made the whole scene come together and it was quite realistic.
You wouldn't happen to have a film copy for me to run through my projector would you?  :trollface:

Loved the movie.

It made me miss sound over it though!

Amazing work as always, DKS!  I particularly love the Unitrack treatment.
+1 on that...the treatment on the Unitrak is worthy of a mini-clinic...

Glad you guys like it. Unitrack mods weren't much to write about--spray with rattle can paint (Rustoleum Flat Brown), reballast, weather (chalk), and apply various colors of Silflor Prairie Tufts and bits of WS foliage clusters. I'm personally not thrilled by it, but for its intended purpose (a quickie little fun project) it does the job.

Loved the movie.

It made me miss sound over it though!

It does have sound... well, a little. Crank it up...
