Layout tour
June 2018 running video - Let's run some trains!
The guys brought some beautifully detailed and weathered models to the layout. Here are some highlights.
Kudos to Joe Atkinson
Just picked up the new June 2018 issue of RMC and Mr Joe Atkinson is the cover story with a layout tour article showing off his work. Knowing Joe and how humble he is, I know he would never toot his own horn, but it is a great article and tribute to his abilities and thouroghness to make one of the premier prototype based layouts around.
Go pick up a print or on-line issue and check it out for yourself.
well done Joe,
USA, Maryland, Baltimore, Model Railroad Open House, Sundays Jun-10, Jul-8, Aug-12, Sep-9, Oct-14, Nov-11, Dec-9 1-5pm
The Baltimore Society of Model Engineers holds monthly open house shows, where visitors can view our two 12 x 65 foot layouts, one is 2-rail O-scale the other is HO. Both layouts run steam and diesel trains, and trolleys off the overhead wire.
A model Railroad in Kuwait
I was sent this and the gentleman asked for me to share it. It takes all kinds to make the world go round, and indeed some are model railroaders. Even in the middle east.
This G scale model is in Kuwait
Horseshoe & Cottonwood SPNG Cab Ride
I don't think this cab ride got posted here as I have been spending too much time on that evil social network's HO Scale group. We finally got around to recording (and editing for an oops or two) a ride across the entire layout in April. At one point the operator got lost (okay more than once) and we edited out one instance where the camera actually got stuck and wouldn't get through a snow shed! But with the wonders of editing, here is a trip back in time to August 1911 on the SPNG!
14"x 10' shelf layout
I decided I would share my experiences building my shelf layout. this is my third layout. My first layout was.....well, my first layout. I didn't know much but it was a good first step. My second, well, I had a room dedicated to an around the walls shelf layout with a peninsula. I only got as far as building the bench work. My marriage dissolved and I had to tear it down. Now, I have a lot less space, but a perfectly unusable space for anything else. So, its not the biggest, but it is surely turning out to be my most fun layout. I started about a month or so ago.
