This blog post details the modeling of a prototypical locomotive, the IAIS RS36 900.

I wanted to add a little variety to my UP transfer, so I decided to model another locomotive that could be paired with the GP38-2 and would be swapped with the CNW GP15-1.  This project took exactly one week to complete and it helped that I started with a model that had already been detailed fairly well.

 Here are a few photos of a recent project to weather a new Athearn Genesis CNW GP15-1 with DCC/sound for transfer service on the Meadow Sub.

This blog is a journal on repainting two 4-axle locomotives for my SPSF local service on the Meadow Sub.

One of the structures I have been wanting to get around to in the last year is my centerpiece passenger station, The Bellevue Station.  I finally had a chance to start it and finish it in the last month.  This blog entry details the information behind the station and provides a gallery of photos during construction.

This blog is about detailing and putting in service an ex-Rock Island Union Pacific GP38-2 for the late-90s era.

Here's a tour of my SPSF Meadow Sub, which is set in late summer 1998 in southeast Nebraska, an ex-Rock Island branchline.  Layout construction began in March 2010 and the layout has evolved a little since then with some track reconstruction and the addition of the Belt Line extension about a year ago.

Details follow in the next post.
