I'm wondering if there is an interest in posting photos of HOn30 projects on this forum. To get the ball rolling, here are some shots of two of my recent builds.

A reefer built from an old Chris Cardinal kit

Thanks Martin and Rick. I knew something had to be removed from the code, but I couldn't remember what.

Now let's see if anyone else posts photos.

Thought i could contribute a pic here.
I have a number of Hon3 projects underway for a dream layout i guess but its a slow process.
A lot of time tinkering with brass locos is slowly sending me mad but i still enjoy it.

I have two of these that were in very pore shape when i got them cheap. this one is almost out of the piant shop but still needs a motor. I have a Mashimam motor for it and need to get a shaft adaptor before i install it. Then its time for the chains, chopped lumber and more logging junk.

I have an issue with the second on in that it has parts missing from the drive line but i will come up with something to make it look nice as a static display.





Also this shay could be the next to the paint shop after the CLimax locos are running again.



EDIT: Just found a pic of one of the climax in the condition it cam in.

And also a pic of the gunge up power truck next to one that has been cleaned ready for use.

Adrian,

That Climax is looking good. It looked like a parts box when you got it.


Ted,

Neat little center cab.

Ted,

Nice job on the diesel. It looks like a GE 45 tonner.

They are C&BT EBT steel hoppers. They are available thru Walthers despite that people think They are out of production. Every couple of months they get a shipment from C&BT ..my LHS gets them for me, about $20. I cut the center bay out because they looked too heavy to be on cd 55 rail.
