Mark W,L,&E Country: USA | Posts: 6005 BigLars Engineer Premium Member Posted - 07/24/2010 :  10:24:35 AM     Roland, The way you are progressing and with your level of detail, this will be a world class layout. Larry Country: USA | Posts: 10900 Hopeless Fireman Posted - 07/24/2010 :  6:06:17 PM     Thanks guys. Progress will be slow but now that I have shown the layout, I might move a little faster. I'll post any progress I make. Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1749 CieloVistaRy Fireman Posted - 07/24/2010 :  7:16:14 PM       Very nice! Love the amount of details that are in it, and the nice colors. Hope to see much more. Don't forget the track plan and how you did those trees.

That is a very fine layout you are building. I really like what you have done with the supply shed. Being able to see through from one side to the other is cool. That is a neat saw filer’s shack as well. Are your structures kits or scratch built. Well done and I'm looking forward to seeing more as you progress. Bentspike Railroad Co. Redding, CA Country: USA | Posts: 168 Hopeless Fireman Posted - 07/25/2010 :  6:44:39 PM     Arthur, I'll work on a track plan tomorrow. I will do something on the trees when I get more material to build with. This has been written up many times before by others, I just use a lot more branches than most people. Randy, All of the structures are scratchbuilt except the blacksmith shop I'm currently working on. It started out as a garage kit. I like to scratch so I can make a building fit a specific area. The saw fillers shack was built from a photo in Timber Times Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1749 TRAINS1941 Engineer Premium Member Posted - 07/26/2010 :  08:58:33 AM     Roland Thanks for the follow up of more pictures of the layout. Outstanding so far. This is going to make a very nice layout. Jerry Jerry "And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years." A.

And to do this much work already and to just start posting pictures now... I know i couldnt of waited that long Craig Country: | Posts: 1202 nalmeida Fireman Posted - 07/26/2010 :  10:33:33 AM       Looking forward to the track plan Roland... to see if I can still steal some ideas for my own! _________________________ Nelson Almeida [Portugal] My home at the web: http://www.modelismoartesanal.eu Country: Portugal | Posts: 2035 Hopeless Fireman Posted - 07/26/2010 :  12:46:24 PM     Here is the promised trackplan very crudely drawn. When I started I knew where I wanted to put things and just put the track down to get there. I never drew up a plan and it probably shows. I am interested in what everyone thinks. Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1749 Hopeless Fireman Posted - 07/26/2010 :  12:56:07 PM     Craig, I have been working on the layout for about 2 years, with about 10 months of that on the enginehouse. Most days I put in an hour or more building something. The Mrs goes to bed around 8 because she has to get up very early for work, so I use the time after she goes in. She will retire in Jan so it may mean a change in my schedule when she is able to get back to a more normal life. Country: USA | Posts: 1749 CieloVistaRy Fireman Posted - 07/26/2010 :  2:06:25 PM       Roland, I like the track plan and the pictures you have posted and look forward to much more!

Probably a great source of pleasure for somebody with your kind of skills.
