    The poll has been interesting to observe.
    While we are waiting for stuff to happen on the current project, i found some old pics of previous projects.
    The current layout was once home to this little scene..

    Both structures were scratch built, not kits.

    Rail truck that I replaced the stake bed with a box for those bad weather deliveries.



    On30 layout. I put a lot of time into this particular one. 3 levels with a lower reversing loop.

    A caboose that I made.








    I hand formed the piano wire for the grab handles. actually made a jig as so many pieces were duplicated on each side.

    A small box car kit bashed from a Thomas the Tank Engine model. They happen to be the exact scale size for the trucks and base, just with a ridiculous toy body. I find them cheap at train shows, pitch the body and reuse the main platform. A lot of the small flatbed you see in these pics were made that way.


    I apologize for the blurry pics, they were taken with a Blackberry many moons ago.
