Congratulations and thank you for your service.  I'm looking forward to seeing the results of you having more time to devote to modeling.

Someone had posted photos on a Facebook group about a 3D printed Cat 777F rock truck.  I asked about making them available for sale.  He contacted me and I picked up 3 of them for the Vulcan Quarry.  He's currently working on a D11T dozer, but hoping he does a front end loader to match.

Congratulations Dave and thank you for your service.


I finished the Binghamton Station kit. This is a Bergen National Laser kit. Well engineered but a couple of issues that I overcame with materials from my stash. Not happy with my assembly, but it's a shelf queen anyway -too big for my layout!  I used a caboose for perspective.

Thanks for the congrats!  Here's a slideshow one of my friends made for my retirement.  My service dates actually start in March 1996 (so the caption's a little off) but this was a fun surprise!  My wife dug up tons of pictures for her to put together.


My amazing wife Patricia is still on active duty.
