East or West
Is it just my imagination or is it harder to find backdrop type photos of western buildings than eastern structures, but the opposite when it comes to rural photos? Perhaps I am not looking in the right places online, but most flats, or background urban shots seem to feature eastern areas, whereas finding background shots of mountains or scenery is pretty even Stephen.

Supplier Suggestion
I am in the process of completing what I consider to be a craftsman kit - a pile of scale lumber and some instructions. I have a suggestion for suppliers as I have a problem with these type of kits.
steel sheet pilings
Hi there
I want to create a steel sheet pilings wall in HO scale, as used in building pits or on harbour quay walls. It consists of trapozoid-shaped sheets, connected to each otheralternating back and front.
Of course I could make a mold for creating plaster copies, but that's a lot of work. I have never seen or read about a polystyrene sheet that comes near this design.
Does anybody has an idea how to make this type of wall? The height is about 4" and the length about 2'.
Hope you can help.

Trying to lay out a super accurate 45 degree module
Getting ready to set up for the PNW FreemoN guys to come over next month. One of the things we want to accomplish is to build a full 360 degrees worth of curved modules. I got all my calculations done and CAD work laid out. I am designing each module so that the outside fascia length does not exceed 48", that way I can cut a strip across the width of a sheet.
Here is my CAD drawing

A new variant of tag-on-car car forwarding
Several months ago in an MRH thread on tag-based car forwarding systems I attempted to briefly describe a variant we have been using on the N Scale Columbia & Western for a year. I think it can be compared to the old tag systems in the same way the new waybill and card pocket forwarding system can be likened to 4 cycle car cards.
