Do you have winter at your layout?

Show your winter pictures and how you made it.

Here's mine.

I'Ve made it on an unfinished module, H0n3. Next step will be Woodland. And I've used snow from NOCH, that stuff is easy removable!

Trains in the Wilderness. BC Rail's North End Lives on in N Scale

Thu, 2011-01-13 21:35 — BCRail_Andy

Some steady progress over the last few months has allowed more trains to cross the Peace River on the N Scale Fort St. John Subdivision. Northern British Columbia, Canada is a remote place and there aren't many trains, but here are a couple I caught crossing the bridge.

First a northbound...

Return to the Basin

It's been a while since we had anything worth saying about the Sudbury Division, but we can report we are still chugging away, though not with steam locos. You may recall we were having issues with electrical pickup in our last installment (Tales from the Basin Part 2), and we had to work long and hard to get that under control. Last summer we took every car off the layout and cleaned each of their wheels individually with cotton swabs and alcohol, cleaned all the locomotives and all the track from top to bottom.

It's Blue!!!

I know the sky blue paint I put on the walls on Monday

Blue, your comment reminded me to make this post. I too am elated that progress is being made on the LK&O. Well, at least on the LK&O right-of-way. I find myself standing in the room staring at the blue walls with my imagination running at notch 8. What do you guys think of the color choice?

As I have posted before, I work in Colorado, but my basement/layout is 500 miles away in eastern Kansas. I have an 1800 sq ft basement for my dream layout (KCS 1981 in HO scale). I have a workbench in my apartment in Colorado so I can do some modeling. I usually get home one weekend a month, but have been home a week for the Thanksgiving holiday. I use "domino" construction and moved my previous apartment layout to the new basement. It was a two track main with some passing sidings and some switching, but was a "round-round" which became bor

Well folks, things have been busy around the Ghost River these last few months and I figured it was time for an update. Lighting is much imnproved, but not perfect and scenes are coming together. Lots of rolling stock has been purchased as well as severl engines. No trains are running as it's difficult to manage them and the camera at the same time.

Still tons of work to do and decisions to be made. Hope you enjoy.
