I'm painting a Virginian and Ohio GP40, as I'm using a Scalecoat rattle can of D&H blue as a pretty close match (it looks lighter under the lamp...
My group will be there with our Bend-Track layout! (Fortunately I am not the one in charge of registration for the layout, I save that for more...
Fresh off the workbench (and too fresh, needs weathering!), a patched 50' boxcar for my freelance. My railroad uses a keystone logo in reference...
Good question. 1. Atlas Chessie GM50 GP40-2. Rare as hens teeth and goes for $200+ when it does come up...I found it for $30 at a train show. My...
Thanks! I brought a bottle to my dad several years back and said, "can you make a holder for this?" It's not quite idiot proof, but it makes it a...
[ATTACH] Three B&O covered hoppers for what I hope to be a Chessie grain train in the future. I think I’m at 7 cars before I have to use other...
Much appreciated! It's my freelanced railroad, running between Grand Rapids and Mackinaw City, MI, on ex-Pennsy rails (hence the logo).

A friend has been (slowly) selling off his excess rolling stock at shows our group brings our layout to, but among the stock, a group of Atlas...
Hey all. I have two Ann Arbor FA-2s which my friend skillfully installed DCC in, and they run great as a pair. This weekend, I got a good deal on...
Micro-Trains car repainted V&O, using Scalecoat D&H Blue (not a bad match!) and K4 decals. I've got a number of V&O cars and a few engines!...
My railroad is set in 1980. This way my power makes sense, I get to paint and patch Rock Island equipment as bankruptcy auction wins, and cabooses...
[ATTACH] Perhaps off the freelance deep end…picturing the cabooses Seaboard transferred to Clinchfield, or the C&O GP9s transferred to WM, here’s...
