Railroads name everything

Below are some of my newly installed location names for the Milan branch. My friend, Clark C., graciously helped me by lasering the signs out of two-tone composite signage material. The top color is ivory with an underlying brown.

Digging through "old" photos - "pretty shades of rust"

Good afternoon all,

I was going through some "old" ( 2009 ) images that were taken while on a historical group's safari. These images were taken while watching a crew operate a remote engine to switch cuts of gondolas. The unused (and  VERY rusty) track on the right hand side of this picture and other details were a pleasant discovery when viewed afterwards!

The Next Project

While I'm waiting for my recent hobby shop order to be filled and mailed, I thought I would start on the next project. Two things I always have on my layouts are a dog park and a trailer park.  

I have seen HO Scale models of mobile homes but to me, they are way to bulky. I would much rather scratchbuild the ones that I need.
