Neewer NL480 LED Lighting Kit Review
Rather than posting a link to my full review I've decided this topic is of enough interest for people looking to get into photographing or filming their model trains that I've decided to repost the whole thing, but edited to stay within a reasonable length for the MRH website.
If you'd like to see the full length review you are welcome to view it on my website's blog.
Rick Wade has passed away
In August of 2020 my good friend Rick Wade was diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer. Today at 6:30 in the morning the cancer won. At this point I don't know what to say, I miss him so much.
Introducting: Little Creek Mine
I've been sitting on this project now for a couple of months trying to figure out what to do with it. The project actually started with building the bench work seen above out of scrap pieces of wood laying around in storage. I'll get into the details of it later, but for the moment the bench work is a self-contained box designed to be a portable exhibition layout.
Christmas Micro
I made a simple point to point micro layout (operating diorama) for a micro model railway contest on Facebook. The baseboard is made from foamcore that is 38 inches long and 6 inches deep at its widest point. The total layout size is 135 square inches, including staging. I'm using On30 equipment from Bachmann.
Running VIA Rail Canadian
Taking a break from building to enjoy running trains today. VIA Rail Canadian passing the CNR Covipan Intermodal Yard on my layout, the Trenton Subdivision in N Scale. Power consists of three of the four Kato F40's that I customized, pulling 11 Rapido Trains coaches.
