Model Train Journal

I agree with you Rich...it is an outstanding model RR. So many modeler don't bother with the scenic aspect of model railroading...but this fellow clearly has nailed it, and built a very believable operating railroad. It is exceptional...thanks for sharing.

I've spent a healthy sum of money and many hours building 80/20 workstations for a prototype dept. group I was responsible for in my last job prior to retirement. Seeing some in use in this thread brought a smile.

Robert

I find them very fascinating...with their obvious vintage character and construction. They would make my old friend Henry Keroack smile to excess were he still alive. Nice stuff Carey!

Man. Deadsville again. Why would that be a surprise; a Kohs whine about a Kohs whining session over on OGR......about a model that won't be any time in the near future that only a very few can actually afford....if they live long enough to ever see it. Let's just build some models and be done with ...

I recall it being a somewhat generic model, and I had a .049 gas motor on it. Unfortunately there was a l...

Looking carefully at the Paul Egolf kit, I can see several bits of detail which remind me of a PRR D16sb. I suspect the original kit may have been intended as such. I like it a lot. Thanks Carey.
