Content of the kit. Some of the tools I use. I started by measuring the parts and identifying them with the numbers from the manual. I add woodgrain with a wire brush. I cut out the windows with a xacto chisel blade, then I stained the areas which were to be glued together. I add nail holes with a Trumpeter rivet wheel. As you see, the wall lines up on the right side and the left is offset. After staining the walls with india ink and alcohol, I paint the peeled off paint. I use turps on a brush and while the surface is wet, I apply the acrylic paint which then pearls up in places to look like peeled off paint when dry. I used a light grey green paint. Painted walls. The trim was painted green. I glued the walls together. The floor is glued in place. I added a hole for the stairwell. Support beams under the floor. This is as far as I have gotten now. The Dinky Creek bridge Posted by Graffen On 07/07/2018 At 2:11:34 PM Recent build. Sorry, no construction images. My memory card did not want to find them.... Wood structure kit from Scale Structures limited. The Dinky Creek bridge in HOn3. All rivets and fittings are in metal .... Painting all the metal parts and drilling holes for 600+ NBWs is a bit of therapy. Avram's Bakery FSM JS-10 Posted by postalkarl On 06/23/2018 At 3:34:46 PM Hi All: Need opinion on this color. This was don via George's Incstuctions. 1) Apply Floquil Grime as a stain by dipping back and forth between paint and thinner. Let dry well. 2Apply Floquil Foundation by the same method over top of the grime. 3) Apply light A&I stains.

Posted by ocalicreek On 06/18/2018 At 8:58:25 PM This may sound like heresy around here, but ,I really don't care for Campbell shingles. Have any of you clever folks (or anyone else) come up with any other uses for them? Galen More New Construction on the F&SM RR Posted by halrey On 06/11/2018 At 2:05:01 PM I stopped by George's last week and found many new changes. George is having a great time replacing and updating structures all over the layout, most of these photos are in the Dover Town area, however the last four shots are below the trestle. I have a few more I will post later...

Thanks for the willingness to share. I am tracing my family tree and am searching for NAR employee list/staff. I have a great uncle who was a chef with a railroad gang and in 1940 was somewhere between Rycroft,Arras, and Edmonton. George McInnis. Don't know if his work took him to the Alaska Highway build, Canol road, or where. Anyone have any clues for me to search for staff or employee lists? Thanks again Signed: 2/22/2011 12:04:17 AM  Posted By: marioscd  I have discovered this site/forum some days ago and now I'm not able to exit from it!!! It is absolutely amazing! Thanks to all the great model makers that shows fantastic pictures and suggestions. Mario Scuderi Signed: 2/8/2011 3:30:45 PM  Posted By: Dawn Carol Goshorn  I came across the site by accident and was THRILLED to see the RR models for the Shirleysburg area. My Dad grew up in the Shirleysburd/ My Union area as did his dad and his dad befor that. My great-grandfather worked for EBT and the only picture I ever saw of him was of that of him standing by an engine. I love the work (though I've always loved model trains). Thanks you guys for bringing this all back to life!

Haven't thought about that for a long time. Thanks for the memories! Signed: 1/8/2011 9:31:03 AM  Posted By: UNCLE BOB  COOL !! Signed: 1/5/2011 9:10:22 PM  Posted By: paul zeigler  I look forward to making a contribution hopefully and learning a great deal in the process. A question: is there any information as to the steps to the installation of manual switch mechanisms? As a novice, I seem to be at aloss as to how to set them up. Paul Signed: 12/13/2010 7:07:51 PM  Posted By: Joe Giacchino  i saw Dr. patti's layout and it is highly detailed and accurate. must have taken years to complete . Signed: 12/1/2010 10:23:04 AM  Posted By: Pennman  Hi ya'all... I have been reading the forums for quite some time, and am very impressed with everyone's entries here!
