Summer 2015 issue of "The Keystone Modeler"

Congratulations to TRW members Claus Schlund, Doug Nelson, and John Surkosky for the wonderful N scale PRR models of theirs that are shown on pages 40 - 45 of the Summer 2015 issue of The Keystone Modeler, http://www.prrths.com/Keystone%20Modeler/Keystone_Modeler_PDFs/TKM%20No.%2093%20-%20Summer%202015.pdf.

My apologies if I have missed models by any other members.   Well done, gentlemen!!

While, as a PGE modeller, I am probably the farthest removed from any of the Pennsy modelers on this list, I do check out TKM each time a new issue is announced.  As the old saying goes, "If you model railroads, you model the PRR".  I am very aware of this since, other than three steel passenger cars built by Canadian Car & Foundry in 1915, ALL the rest of the PGE's pre-1920 passenger equipment was ex-PRR (one Class OG combine, one Class PE coach, two Class PF coaches, three wide vestibule Class PK coaches and two baggage-mail cars whose class has not been definitively determined.   Of course, by the period (Sept 1952) I model any of those cars that remained were relegated to MOW service.

Cheers,

Jeez, there are some GREAT photos... :o

I've never been much of a Pennsy diesel guy, but I might have to subscribe...

I see also that someone has purchased the ScaleCoat line of paints; that's the first I've heard of that....good news!

Fine work, gentlemen. Just as superb was your carrying the N flag for us. Encouraging that TKM would give N that platform.

and best of all it's free. Love TKM, just wish I had downloaded them from the beginning.

Yes, congrats to all that made the issue.  8)

Towel1996: Love your signature line !  About five years ago I had a t-shirt made with those words on it.  Made a lot of friends wearing it.

Wow. I can't believe my N5c made it in there. That took almost no skill to do. I added a trainphone and Z scale couplers. Lulz.
I'm shocked that @Lemosteam 's B8a wasn't featured here. That thing is a one of a kind gem of a loco.

I think it was just Claus, Doug, and myself representing N scale. And where was Doug's loco? I wonder if they are going to do more in the next issue.

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."
