Howdy everyone!
I appreciate all the likes on my stuff!
Flo - a bacon cheeseburger, a bowl of chili, coffee and bring the hot sauce.
James - I have a fond appreciation for anything Caterpillar. When I first saw Cat's promo train,
I searched for additional photos, but there's just a few of the EMD and some of the flats.
I hope you find the Athearn CAT's, as that would be a great addition to your stable!
Dave - really good photos! The last one reminds me to pick up some Maker's Mark
Willie - The elevator progress photos are great. Good idea with the piping. Nice work on the truck.
My Dad had a flatbed straight-job very similar, except it was a Diamond-T. That was the truck I
learned on at 8 years old. Your flatbed driver did what I have to do - lose some weight! I've gained
some, since retiring in Nov.
Chet -
I agree with your build methods. It just makes sense to layout and build that way. Good photos
of your early construction!
The carrier photo really makes one understand the size of those ships! Awe inspiring.
The ratchet strap on the dirt! Another funny one
LOL
Sherrel - thanks for the favorable layout comment. Zooming in that close on the A/C unit
shows my mistakes, even when I touch it up, there's still some goofs. When my hands get
tired and ache (which is after a short period) they start to shake and would make a paint can
mixer/shaker envious!
I like the end of track bumper!
Patrick - belated Happy Birthday!
Curt - thanks for the comment - it's appreciated!
Joe - Great photos - interesting!
