Just got the car side shed wall finished, and in place, although I feel I will be adding more stuff as time permits.

I have 2 posts.

Oh dear, somehow I entered to save, but couldn't change the past post. So I added another.

Thank you Greg. I think, however, I am going to replace the "fresh wood". It doesn't look right.

OK, I wasn't liking the lumber rack, and at the advice of a fellow British friend, took it out. I think I will put in a pipe rack instead.

On to another update, I am scratchbuilding a small 'shorty' flatcar to go in the shed that is under repair. I am liking what I have so far, and going off a frame that I have from a Sierra West Scale Models as a guide. I have more to go obviously, but this is a start.

I just have to switch gears once in a while. I don't have the right trucks here, and will switch them out. They are used for height and spacing measurements for now.

OK Mr. Nelson

Why does that look like a Ken Kidder locomotive in the middle of one of your photos?

Cam it be true that there is another modeler who has such old brass ? ? ? ?

Just a question.

see ya
