There's still so much more to do. Ready for part II? Let's go! David Meek Country: USA | Posts: 1114 Arizona Dave Fireman Premium Member Posted - 09/22/2015 :  09:35:20 AM       Here's a link to part I: http://www.railroad-line.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=39429 David Meek Country: USA | Posts: 1114 MarkF Engineer Premium Member Posted - 09/22/2015 :  09:47:32 AM     I've enjoyed following along in Part I, so I know Part II will be great! Mark Country: USA | Posts: 13756 Arizona Dave Fireman Premium Member Posted - 09/22/2015 :  7:13:14 PM       Here's the progress on the O&F Saloon in Hanging Rock as of this afternoon. David Meek Country: USA | Posts: 1114 MinerFortyNiner Fireman Premium Member Posted - 09/22/2015 :  10:30:28 PM       Taking a front row seat...this should be good... Country: USA | Posts: 2793 darrylhuffman Crew Chief Posted - 09/23/2015 :  08:00:32 AM       I just want you to know that you have really changed my approach to the hobby after more than 60 years of model building. I truly love the way you draw and color your track plans. Works of art in and of themselves. Country: USA | Posts: 887 BBLmber Fireman Posted - 09/23/2015 :  10:30:00 AM     Dave, your saloon is really shaping up. Mark W,L,&E Country: USA | Posts: 6444 Coaltrain Fireman Posted - 09/23/2015 :  11:42:39 AM     I'll second Darryl, your track plans are exactly how I think plans should be drawn. Over the years the model magazines would change the way they would draw plans, and about the mid 80s they drew them like you do, which I feel were the best look. I would remember spending hours just looking at the plans and envisioning how it would be in an actual model. To me the current computer generated plans are stale looking. your plans have the perfect combination of hand drawn and colored and computer drawn and colored.

Was it inspired by the natural bridge on the Fiddletown and Copperopolis Railway?

It's something I've always wanted to include on a layout since I just love the preposterous whimsy of it. David Meek Country: USA | Posts: 1114 Grubes Crew Chief Posted - 09/23/2015 :  10:12:52 PM     Congratulations on the 1st 100 pages. I've followed from the start. I enjoy every one of your posts and have great admiration for you modeling and creativity. Country: USA | Posts: 630 Tyson Rayles Moderator Premium Member Posted - 09/24/2015 :  07:14:46 AM     Your track plans are really awesome and the layout ain't shabby either Dave! Country: USA | Posts: 13458 Arizona Dave Fireman Premium Member Posted - 09/24/2015 :  7:34:47 PM       Thank you very much, gents! I was able to scratch out a little time to work on the O&F Saloon today and managed to finish up the lean-to addition. If I have time tomorrow I'll finish the fancy trim on the upper facade. Then it's just the roof and a few details and this one is will be ready for the layout. David Meek Country: USA | Posts: 1114 mabloodhound Fireman Posted - 09/25/2015 :  10:34:39 AM     So glad to see San Lorenzo firmly planter on your track plan. Now as for the saloon, don't think I've ever heard of one that also sells guns & powder. Nice looking saloon though. Country: USA | Posts: 6703 Arizona Dave Fireman Premium Member Posted - 09/25/2015 :  10:53:41 AM       It's the only business in town ;-) David Meek Country: USA | Posts: 1114 Arizona Dave Fireman Premium Member Posted - 09/25/2015 :  8:22:30 PM       And the saga of Olson & Furlow's continues. Today I finished the trim and cornice on the upper façade.
