CNJ Bronx Terminal fascia - A Question for Tim Warris
Tim,
How did you create the faux metal look on your fascia?
Future Project
Here is an industry I plan to model. The problem is the eastward facing turnout. This is a double track main and the turnout is on the eastward. The only option I see is to flip the turnout and make it westward facing. I dont think that wouldn't look right on the eastward since all the other turnouts on the track are eastward facing. Any thoughts?
Quarry Modeling Suggestions
I have a small area (about 10 inches deep by 36 inches long) where I would like to model a quarry. I'm relatively new to these forums and don't see where I can "search" the forums, so I apologize if this subject request has already been asked......Grampy

Time for a change?
I am considering making a major change.
I created the concept for the Cariboo Western Railway in 1980 when I bought my townhouse. While I was really interested in the British Columbia Railway at the time I thought they didn't run enough trains to make interesting operation and there was not a lot of BCR models available.
The other day I had a Homer Simpson moment DOOOOOOH!
I realised that there is now a lot of BCR equipment available.
I have lots of information available on the British Columbia Railway.

Opinons on track plan revision requested.
Here's the last posted trackplan of the "Black and Blue" where I asked for suggestions for some of the industries. I got some good feedback including a comment about the mine tipple being too close to the roundhouse/engine service area which I agree with as it always sort of bugged me too.

Input needed on new layout design
I've been redesigning a planned layout to keep things on a single level.
Algoma & Wolff Creek Railroad
Hello!
I just wanted to introduce my actual plan to build my small H0 layout.
The basement room (i probably will share with the drum set of my son) is only 12,45' x 9,18' big. I decided to base my plan on the pattern of the "Heart of Georgia" layout plan. The smallest radius used is a little bit under 24". the tightest turnouts are #5. Beside 5 custom turnouts #6 all other turnouts are hand laid and already made and ready for lay down. All curves are made with easements.
