Extreme Diesel Weathering has nothing on THIS
On September 21, 2009, Peachtree Creek decided that it wanted to branch out and see the world. Part of that world was my basement. I did get most of my HO-Scale rolling stock out of harm's way before the waters reached us, but a lot stayed down there.
It took nearly three days to pump out the basement. Here is one G-Guage Bachmann 4-6-0 that got unearthed from the muck once we got in there to clean up. I'd say that she's an example of REAL extreme weathering!
Really?
I just noticed the DVD Christmas sale banner.
It says they are loaded with money...
...and time-saving tips.

Little trains by the dozen,
Some were bought from my cousin.

On the 'net,
there's a Pacific
With details quite specific.

Overcoming modeling problems this weekend
Forward the project. Two sticking points were overcome this weekend!
Sticking point number 1 - holding up tables in the custom built observation car interior. The new method worked! and sticking point number 2 - found the macro setting on my digital camera. But I cheated - looked it up in the manual.
So, while the observation car interior is not complete, 6 tables were installed this weekend and these were the hard ones.
5 coach interiors are now complete, photographed and installed - including the kitbashed one:
Free-moN: At Home and On The Road
As it seems my Free-moN modules have now become my "home layout", thought I'd start a new thread featuring the whole kit-n-keboodle rather than individual modules.
'Twas a busy weekend: on Saturday I set up all my modules in my garage to 1) troubleshoot, 2) see it if fit in my garage (a "California Basement") and 3) run trains!
Only took about a kabillion hours to get everything going, but once it did...!
