Hi all, im starting this new thing where I put in a new fact about the GWR everyday. Today’s topic is the Atlantic Tank engines. The GWR 4600 class were a class of 4-4-2 tank engines used in 1913 by the pregrouping GWR. This tank was a BEAST, and became one of the standard class of outside cylinder tank engines for the GWR. It was designed…

My humpies at the lower end of town. Results of the Great Depression . I plan on a couple of oil drum fires eventually.

Having spent my last career working for Queensland Rail, I got a lot of ideas. Track and infrastructure is an never ending project. Track alignment is a constant. I had a set of track workers all given jobs but for two. They’re going to be surveyors. I need a theodilite . There is one but works out at $36… Ugh.
Lets see if there’s a print… Read more

My version of a famous station structure by the great John Allen for his Gorre & Dephetid RR.
Like a game of Tetris, everything fell together. I had the two elevations when I realised that I could add a third line to mimic Allen’s only my version is a dummy track and modelled as being restored from dormancy.

My stash of the green stuff!
This lot should see me out I reckon. Having begun to finally run out of Woodland Scenics ground foam, it was time to save some money and make my own. After watching how simple it was on YT, I gave it a go. After buying a bag of recycled foam chunks, paint and even a cheap new blender, I’ve saved a lot of money… Read more

Looking for some feedback and tips on a batch of CEMX and CBFX covered hoppers I’ve been weathering.

My goal was to replicate the dirty, faded appearance these cars get in aggregate and cement service, focusing on grime accumulation, rain streaking, rust bleed-through around seams, and dusty truck sideframes rather than heavy rust.

I tried to make…

I saw an HO scale covered hopper with the same road name as an N scale one I already had. When I found it in O scale I knew I had to make a three scale diorama. I found the clear case at Hobby Lobby, then 3D printed and painted the tracks. I’m pretty pleased with the outcome. I’m planning on making two more for the locomotives my layout is…

I’m working on my first inspired layout. It’s going to be somewhat modular, with the main section being a 3×6 ft module, and the ability to start with a loop from 3×2 ft modules and expand as I get it more developed.

It is based on the demolished Birmingham Terminal Station in Birmingham, Alabama, using Kato Unitrack N-Scale.

Hey all. I have spent May, building this for a friend. A homage to a Diamond and Caldor Lumber Co. engine house in HO. He has a large branch line for that lumber company on his layout.

I took this picture of the locomotive and caboose bird house and the flat house bird feeder. I made these in 4-H back in the day. The locomotive and caboose are full of growing bird families right now.

Here is my initial layout design. The tabletop is 30 x 48 inches. The figure 8 will be elevated as it’s lined up here with a tunnel on that right main line curve. I would like to add a second switch on the siding, and incorporate an engine house. It’s not going to be based on any area in particular, but it’s going to be inspired by…
