Looks like a load of '66, maybe '67, Ford Falcons. Sure wouldn't mind if someone made a couple of N scale versions.

Took my version of SP's Klamath and my NP Class W-3 Mike and scored with them both at the NMRA national  convention contests  here in Salt Lake City.

Congratulations PDX!  Wonderful work and its great it was recognized...

From my end I am working on some small projects while on vacation.  Below are two std section houses for Farron which are done save steps and roof flashing and trim.





Have a great weekend!

NMRA actually gives awards for N scale models?  :trollface: :trollface:
All kidding aside though, congratulations!

Well, they were the only N scale items  in the contest and there really weren't  that many entries  in many of the categories  other than the photos  . Also , it was commented multiple times that there were a lot of n scalers at this convention-ran into a good number myself .

It might blow your mind to know we only stopped making them about 4 years ago.
