Last Project of the Year
Well here is the final project for the year. I Kit bashed a Highway Miniatures Erie B-2 Steam Shovel into a Marion Type 450. HBMS had 10 of these versatile units.
I used almost everything from the kit with the exception of the boiler.
Advertising for MRH / LNHS Annual Convention 2016
I recently attended the Louisville & Nashville Historical Society annual convention in Kentucky. We visited the train museum in New Haven, Kentucky and yours truly was were my MRH t-shirt. I had a number of inquiries about what MRH was and shared information about how great MRH is. Photo courtesy of LNHS
Video Experiments
Since Rick and others began posting their videos here It seemed a good idea to have a placeholder for using video in our models. My layout is far from complete and the scenery often varies from roughed in and painted to snow looking foam shapes or just plywood. Regardless, it is fun to see the railroad from a hum perspective.
Please join me and post your trials and tribulations, YouTube links and set up's for the camera(s), and how you "produced" and edited the video.

Sometimes, I'm not the best video maker...
Sometimes, my big nose will get in the way...
MTM: Ulrike Strauch | European scenery artist
I met Ulrike Strauch (Ulee) in the usual way. I first saw some fantastic images of her work on Facebook, and simply sent her a message. What I found was a German custom builder, that is highly talented, and not afraid to try something new.
Ulee’s scenery work is well sought out, in Europe. And after this interview was completed, my friend has started creating Tree’s so realistically, that I feel we need to talk again sometime next year. She is so very talented, and I do hope you agree.
Please enjoy
