Hi everyone, just came back from the Bracebridge railroad show, and look what I picked up. I guess you could say it was the catch of the day, Full Steam Ahead's newest kit "Troels Kirk Cannery".Named after forum member [Kirk] Troels Kirk who came up with initial design for this fantastic looking kit! Joe Rutter has really out done himself on this one,I thought I would post some pictures of the kits contents to inspire all of you to get one before they are all gone, enjoy!
























I will start a build on this kit as soon as I am finished my current build of Vogue furniture.

Now, that's a great looking waterfront kit, Greg. Joe's execution of Troel's design is outstanding. It looks like you'll be having a fun build, and I'm looking forward to the photos....





Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm a busy man. I have a railroad to run.

Thank you Tom! Joe's marvellous additions to my original cannery makes for a really fine looking kit! Moody, well composed and dying to be kitbashed... I'm honoured that he put my name on such a fine kit!

I have one ordered too, it was the seagulls that really got me, nevermind the wonderful design from Mr. Kirk and the beautiful execution of Mr. Rutter.

I really mean that most of the credit for that exiting structure must go to Joe, who added more than half of what you get! He has added another building to my initial structure , which gives much more impact, better composition and plenty of new photogenic angles. Here's my original O-scale stucture:

Troels, let me add my voice to all these congratulations. Now even if Joe added quite a number of new features to the scene, providing him with the inspiration and desire to model it was well worth giving your name to the kit. Bravo, mon ami!

Troels
Both you and Joe make a great duo. Joe's expansion of your Cannery was masterfully done. Congrats.
