WWII Service Men & Women in N-Scale?

Mon, 2014-05-12 15:52 — WestViewSantaFe

Hello all!

My N scale railroad is set in the summer of 1945. Something that I think would go a long way towards reinforcing the time period would be to have some appropriate era military personnel hanging around at the passenger station, hopefully they are waiting for their connecting trip home.

I've pretty much scoured the 'net and have come up empty. Anybody out there know of such figures? 

Thanks!

Justice & Hangtree?

Sat, 2014-05-10 06:52 — AndersE

Got this Oriental Limited Powerhouse 2-4-4-2 on ebay.
Lettered for the "Justice & Hangtree" I wonder if anyone can tell me anything about this model railroad?
There has been quite a lot of equipment for sale on ebay from several sellers.
I also bought a reefer and a boxcar, most of the equipment are quite nicely painted.
Many hoppers suggest an eastern location.
Sellers are from Kentucky and Ohio (Cincinnati area) if that's any clue?

Had a great time today working on the layout!
 
The village of San Lorenzo is nearing completion. Today I completed a new station platform, located the buildings and completed the ground cover.

how does grain get to the silo?

Sat, 2014-05-03 11:14 — casenundra

I am building a silo in N scale and was wondering how the grain is transported to the silo. Most likely by truck; but, what kind of truck? Is an N scale model of the truck available?

Has anyone on this forum modeled a scene with a railway track alongside a glacial till embankment?

If so, please show.
