  • The Gallery: Feb. '23 "Climbing High"

    We will devote this month's Photo Gallery to all those things we can climb. Stairs, ladders, fire escapes, telephone poles (with a lineman climbing it), a rope to a tree house, jungle gyms ... you get the idea. So, post away!

    This tall ladder on my Campbell Oil Derrick was fun to build.

        Good one, Lou. I was hoping for some cleaver interpretations of this month's theme!

        Still better than jumping, Bill.

        Here we have a breakout climb (or should I say jump) attempt from the police station.

          I wouldn't want to climb that ladder on the side of that building on Dick Genthner's previous HO layout.

              The difference between the almost right word and the right is the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning.

                And a short ladder to reach the tall ladder on the back of the tower.

                  Metal rungs up the sides of the exhaust towers/chimneys by the kilns. If Brook Qualman modeled it that way, then it was that way on the prototype.
