Planting some trees. More to be added.



Yes, I see the leaning tree. Chill. More to be added. It'll get covered. Besides, the real ones are not always perfect.

I like those "dead" trees.  What are you using for them? Sagebrush?  I need to add a few more around the more polluted areas of my layout.

Yup. Good ole sagebrush right from the shoulders of US-14 in Wyoming. My family went rock hunting whilst I picked a few bags of the stuff. I'm sure the locals thought we were crazy.  :D  Ahh, to be in the Bighorn Mountains again...

Its a start. Its not really anything like the real one, but frankly Scarlett...

Somewhere, an HO-er was denied a kit.  ;)

yes, well, being a Bayou Boy, reading has been questioned as one of my skills . . . (coughs under breath in embarrassment).

Yeah, I agree. They don't belong on this layout. I was weak. The force is strong with them.  :facepalm:

WSOR....my secret crush.


Nice!

Uh Matt?....It's only a secret if you don't....how should I say this? Post it on the internet! What else are you hiding?
+1 on the WSOR....but a bit of a sad alternative to the WC.

Best wishes, Dave
If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

Mmmm... paint.





Some details to follow... there is a plan.




Just think, this was a two stall engine house in HO, or a believable large industry in N. Proof that we model the correct scale. HO just takes up too much room.

Going back to the road crossing... First, I thought I should lay down more ballast before attaching the "rubber" BLMA crossings. And stop. Time to let the ballast dry.
