Brick Roller

I saw this on Shapeways and thought I'd post it here. Very clever. There is a short video at the bottom.

I'm not affiliated with the seller or the product. Just thought it was a neat item.

Realistic Summer Trees: Part II

Hello again everyone. This is the second part to the "Realistic Summer Trees" blog. I realized that there were some supplemental pieces of information that were greatly needed in order to fully support the trees in the surrounding scenery. 

Another newbie.

Do you have an archive where I can browse for my answer before I ask something that's old hat?

First off I'm in N scale.

New layout concept: Crooked River Rails

This blog is about my HO scale model railroad based on the area around the Cuyahoga River in downtown Cleveland, Ohio, circa late 1940's to early 1950's. I chose this era because the Cleveland Union Terminal (known as Terminal Tower today) was at the height of its operation as a union passenger station.

Paperboard plant in Ukiah, CA

Hi all,

   I'm looking for pictures & information of the paperboard plant in Ukiah, CA. from 1990-2002. I will however take what I can get (beggars & choosers). Specifically, did the plant have a rotary dumper, and what would be delivered by rail?

   Thanks,

Futuristic Locomotive I2X2 Build

Got your attention quickly, didn't I? Well, ever since I posted this picture on the forums, people have asked for a build log - and after much stalling, a few failed attempts at writing, and the photo appearing in this month's "Yes it's a Model" section, I've finally mustered up the steam to do this.
