Just stumbled across the website for this short line. https://sopor.ca/en/   Has anyone considered modelling it?  It seems an interesting candidate for a small layout.

I have started working on the layout again. I decided to post this to my blog because this is the start of what should end up looking pretty cool and being an area that provides A LOT of operation potential.

My creative side will simply not allow me to formalize a plan and follow it... I have an idea what I want but that is all.  The thrill of the hunt is the junk I find at trainshows and figuring out how I can clean it up and put it all back together again.

Well everyone, we come to part one of the Big Boy chase! We were leaveing for Alabama literally in a couple days, so it was now or never.

Hey everybody, back with some railfanning, FINALLYYY!!! In any event consider this short little snippet a teaser if you will.

Ok, moving onto the next town and project. This time it will be Fordyce, AR.
Here's a shot from about 2 years ago just after I finished re-aligning the track.

Anyone have any experience with the new Atlas Signaling System? I am planning on a small layout (4x8, 5x9, 4x8 with a 4x4 extension on one side). I'm not interested in ops-sessions. My aim is a computer-controlled system so at most 1-2 operators so I'm looking for something simple, a basic ABS system and don't want to put the time into a more elaborate system. I'm looking at either a Digitrax or NCE DCC system.

I was just shooting aound the layout at a number of industrial receiving and loading dock scenes.

The WMT Scrap Yard has finally built a scale house to weigh the loads coming in.

Hey everyone, Here,s a teaser for one of the projects I'm working on. This was one of the very first f-units I got, A-B-A lashup of blu-box F-units. B-units about to get a sound-chip, motor, etc., and the other A-unit will eventually get the same treatment. Weathered with a light coat of grime and some rust on the truck sideframes.

Just a note, this scene is not finished.
