Cmon guys I'm sure you all have stuff to show the rest of the class. Look I'll even kick things off with my first T-Trak Module.

Completed my N scale newsstand project.  My big question prior to starting this project was could I create N scale magazines.  Success.  The stack of newspapers on the crate is actually an image of the front page of the Huntingdon (PA) Daily News.  No, you can't read it, but take my word for it.  Lighting is WS Just Plug system.  It is not cheap, but it is a well designed system and the rheostat to control individual lighting levels is critical for proper lighting levels for photography. Credit to Vic Roseman for his series of articles on HO newsstands in Mainline Modeler from 2005.  Also inspiration from DKS that there isn't anything we can't do in N scale.  Candy anyone?

This is why I don't like posting my Thomas the tank engine level of detail here. Gorgeous stuff !

@dougnelson that news stand is simply stunning. Something I'd hoped to model a long time ago and never got the chance.

Me, I made a goofy thing: a proof-of-concept kiddie train ride locomotive. It runs on T Gauge track--sort of. Next version should be much better.

I agree, these look good, but those are P-RSL GP38's and not PRR diesels.  PRR diesels in the 60's would have PRR keystone logos on the front.

So, if I get this right, you built that in 1:1 scale with Vic Roseman and then you and DKS got together and built shrink ray to make it the size of a penny and also miniaturize a garden railroad kiddie train.  Right?  It is the only plausible explanation.....

Outstanding!, I used to collect comic books, so this one really hits home.
