Weathered the track and ties on the bridge deck, touched up some paint on the river surface and bridge,  weathered a few box cars and played around with the camera.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words....

One of the best weekend updates I've seen yet, hope there are more like this weekends..........

John/mec fan: the scenery is looking good, reminds me of black flies and 'skeeters!

Alex/Guilford guy : I used Floquil railroad tie brown for the trucks and wheels, airbrushed.

That's good.. because the rest of the layout is just bare plywood at this point!   This is the only part that is reasonably complete so it is where I take all my photographs.

Seriously?  If so be sure to let us know - you will have some Railwire comrades to meet while you are here.

There's a shyness found in reason
Apprehensive influence swallow away
You seem to feel abysmal take it
Then you're careful grace for sure
Kinda like the way you're breathing
Kinda like the way you keep looking away

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

Moocho fine stuff this week!
(Is it me, or is something always on fire during our Weekend Updates?)

Anyway, just finished a video of the boxcab on my Mt. Coffin & Columbia River layout.
Only the rear truck has pickup on the boxcab right now, so thank goodness for powered frogs!


First video with new camera, so pardon the light/focus issues.
Thank for watching & keep up the fab mad modeling!
