just a few pics for ya'll to comment on. I've built these from light wood and cardboard that I seem to have an enless supply of. Hope you like what you see. the gas station is a mock-up of one I used to work at, the autozone is one I freekly visit and the motel is one that my wife and her cousins stayed at in piegon forge tn.
Scratch built structures on the K&EFR
I started building the Kanunda and Emu Flat Railway in 2000 as an operating HO scale model railway layout. I find that operating with appropriate scenery and structures in place is more satisfying that operating on a "plywood pacific". So until recently I have been using temporary structures that I have bought at swap meets or built from kits with little concern to prototype. There are no kits for South Australian line side structures that I know of so I will have to scratch build most of them.
Bye Bye to the Northern California Consolidated
Well, this is the beginning of the blog to track my progress of an N-scale endeavor.
Three road names of Western Pacific, Southern Pacific and Santa Fe.
As you can see the pics show the layout as a round the room...the duck under was low enough that my dear wife whacked her head three times in a row in less than a 5 minute time span, no joke. So I, yes I, decided to move it, because it was built to move, to the garage for a while.
Building a JL Innovative Brookside Ice House
Hello everyone
I thought I might as well share my latest project with you. I am building a JL Innovative Brookside Ice House kit. I have always liked the look of this kit from the pictures i have seen. When I got it home I realized that I don't really need an ice house. I assembled the main walls and started to think.

Free-moN Staging Yard - 16"x10'
It was showtime at the Hiller.
Silicon Valley Free-moN had our modules set up and trains running only to find...
ONLY ONE PASSING SIDING ON THE WHOLE LAYOUT????
We had over a week of show and the ability to run only two trains at a time?
What would happen next Sunday when the whole group showed up and wanted to run trains?
Draw straws?
Stand in line?
Something had to be done!
So I built (most of) a staging yard in (most of) a week.
