Amazing, Bruce. Absolutely stunning.

...
I've got to fix that leaning Coke machine!!!

Don't! It adds to the realism! You saw leaning Coke machines everywhere, where the store owner told the delivery guy to hide the bad spot in the floor.

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

Absolutely stunning Bruce!!!!!  :o Don't forget to fix that leaking ridge line too!!  :trollface:

All you need to do now is to string some wires on those poles and it would be very hard to tell real from model!!!!!!

Art..... only way to describe those images.... congratulation!
Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

Great work Bruce!

Evokes the days of sharing a banana split with your first serious girlfriend, filling up the tank for $5, taking a long drive and getting your first speeding ticket.  You have about 2 years in my teens packed into that module!

And don't fix the Coke machine- when they lean like that, there's a good chance the nickel you put in will fall through to the change slot.

I gave up rivet counting when I couldn't see an N scale rivet anymore.

In that shot, I don't know where the module ends and reality begins.  Stunning.

I'd certainly pay this guy damned good money to build me a layout !.......if I had any 'damned good money'.  Outstanding modeling !  Brings back memories of growing up in California's great San Joaquin Valley.
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

There were 2, an SD40-2 and an SD50

You are correct, I'm just a fan of the SD40-2, they were "The" locomotive of my youth. But I did manage to get a few pictures of the SD50 as well. Here are both Olympic road trail units.

Over the weekend, I did something "respectable" for once...

I bought some scale-lumber, namely 6x6s, 2x8s, and 2x4s.

Saw the SD50 when we were on a family vaca to PA. I was 8, so no photos from me, Dad pretty sure has some.

There is nothing like natural light and background to show what a great art model railroading is.
You've "painted" a magnificent 3D picture of a place many of have fond memories of.
Bar is raised for me at least.
Bravo!
