Morning, all.

Loco almost back together.  Needs some lubrication and wheel cleaning and then it's on the layout.  

Got the Christmas trees set up, need to do some cleaning/moving stuff down here today.

Might get the FSM kit out to look it over as well.

Good morning.

It was raining lightly earlier this morning, but has stopped and the sun is trying to peek trough the clouds.  We're looking at a brisk and windy day here in upstate NY with a high around forty degrees.  I didn't get as far as I had planned with my freight house construction yesterday, but progress is progress, and I'll continue working on it today. 

I hope everyone has a safe and productive day!

Morning all,

Pam and I have bowling at noon and then late lunch/early dinner with friends.

Not much else is on my agenda.

Have a great day everyone and be safe.

Today's project was interiors for background buildings.  Brechbiel & Hyde, office in the bottom right (before I did the interior)

The interior, which will require lighting to see:

And on the other side, my bashed Walthers Merchants Row II:

I grabbed appropriate images, scaled them, printed them out, and mounted to styrene pieces.  I did repeats on the images as necessary.  You can't notice the repeats (or watermarks on some of the photos).  Countertops were built with scraps of styrene.

All-in-all, about 4-5 hours of work, for a good result.
