Hey Curt.....I have a bunch of pre-painted little people "workers" that might help the scene, drop in and check out the stash anytime.

Both your and Tom's cranes look great.   Should be an interesting scene with the loco repair and details.

Really nice looking crane, Curt.

I like the stain colour and all the brackets really bring it to life.

Cheers, Mark.

Curt,

Fantastic job on the traveling crane build.

You gave me credit for the build but the Judge built it from a Campbell's kit some 45+ years ago.

Again, very very well done my friend.

Afternoon All,

Well, here are the pictures of my current project. The chain hoists I built are oversized unfortunately. The project is on hold until after the 1st of the year when I'll order a Funaro F22 kit (HD 30' flat car) for the scene. The gondola scene is only to show the motor and generator. On the flat they will be chained down.

Curt,

I like the garage, colors and weathering look excellent to my eye.  I read about your thought that the doors were too large for the building.  I suggested in yesterday's Baggage car that you might add a sign across the upper windows to lower the height of the doors.  After looking again, I think you could add a piece of board and batten siding in place of the right door.  If the doors still look wrong to you, use some Tichy garage doors and add a piece of board and batten siding over the top of those doors.  IMO that is too nice a structure not to have a home on your layout.

Nice work on the kit Curt..... 8)

What is the width and height of the front door opening in scale feets?

Thank you, Jerry and Greg, for your insight and suggestions. I will take a look at the doors tomorrow and get the measurements. More to follow.
