Built a waterfront HO layout in Ireland http://www.railroad-line.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=22161 but now making a start in On30 in Australia http://www.railroad-line.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=52273 Country: Australia | Posts: 2502 BigLars Engineer Premium Member Posted - 12/21/2019 :  3:42:15 PM     The Bachmann Baldwins are out. The Yanks showed up at a Canadian Artillery position. Possible trading for Canadian Whiskey. I will try to post a couple of videos to You tube them put the links here.

Country: Australia | Posts: 496 BigLars Engineer Premium Member Posted - 12/23/2019 :  08:20:51 AM     I finally got to put the video on youtube. Here is the loco running on an unfinished section of my layout I use to store my WW1 stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8FEcV8hutE Edited by - BigLars on 12/23/2019 09:01:44 AM Country: USA | Posts: 11749 BigLars Engineer Premium Member Posted - 12/23/2019 :  08:31:25 AM     I spent much of the day yesterday adding couplers to cars and reworking figure. Here are a string on Peco v tipper cars I added couples to. The cars do not come ready to accept a coupler so I had to drill out and file a slot to insert a modified Grandt Line link and pin couplers. Country: USA | Posts: 11749 BigLars Engineer Premium Member Posted - 12/23/2019 :  08:38:17 AM     Frame modifications to accept the coupler. Country: USA | Posts: 11749 BigLars Engineer Premium Member Posted - 12/23/2019 :  08:52:45 AM     Now for the figures. There is a secret on30 society called the Mid Hudsoners. They represent some excellent modelers and are usually on the cutting edge on ON30. Les Davis has scanned a number of them and 3d printed them for me. These figures are going through a modification process to get them ready to be in scenes on my WW1 layout. They will represent reporters and train crews that were not required to be in full uniform or even of age or fit. Anything on or attached to the figures that is a color other than grey was a detail I am adding. I used paper to represent straps, belts, fix hats and add pockets to the figures. I also converted a fire helmet to a Pickle Helmut by adding a spike and doing a little carving. Added pouches and guns from a WW2 British Figure kit.

I always have some type of photo evidence. Check out the Canadian Press Tour. Some of these guys were very well feed. Plus I actually know all the guys that these images were created from and I want to have some fun inserting them into some photo ops on the layout. They will not be permanent fixtures. Country: USA | Posts: 11749 jbvb Fireman Premium Member Posted - 12/23/2019 :  11:30:36 AM       I hear you, though your examples appear to be two reporters and a Staff Officer minder. Country: USA | Posts: 6544 brucet Engine Wiper Posted - 12/23/2019 :  7:15:09 PM     This thread both inspires me and annoys me!! It inspires me that someone can be so dedicated to a subject and have the inspiration, dedication and skill to be so committed to it. It annoys me that I can't get off my fat @#$@ and put in the same effort. I've been crook, (sick for non Australians), for the past 18 months and find getting back to modelling hard. This thread is very much a part of keeping my interest going. BigLars thanks for the thread. Thanks for keeping my interest alive. I hope you and all the readers and troops in the trenches have a very happy and healthy festive season. bruce Country: Australia | Posts: 496 Page: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 of 51 Topic    New Topic |    New Poll |   Reply to Topic |  Previous Page | Next Page Jump To: Select Forum Railroad Line Administrative Forums       Forum News       Administrative Posts General Forums       WorkShops, Garage, Machines and Tools       The Tour Bus       The Arrival Track       RR-L Member Personal Websites       The Crew Lounge       The Classroom       Interchange Tracks       Rail Events       Reference & Research Model Railroad Forums       The Sn3 Branch       Mike Chambers' Craftsman's Corner       HOn30 and HOn3 Forum       Early Rail Forum       Dead Rail Forum       The On30 Line       Railroad Photography Forum       Small Scale Model Railroad Forum       Mid Scale Model Railroad Forum       Large Scale Model Railroad Forum       Logging, Mining, & Narrow minded       Model Railroad Construction       Micro & Mini Layouts       Layout Design / Operation Sig Forum       Startin' from Scratch       DCC, Computers and Electronics for Model Railroads Shop Talk       Vehicle and Non-Rail Transportation Modeling       The Steam Shop       The Roundhouse       Rolling Stock: the Car Shops       The Diesel Shop Company Store       Railroad-Line Swap Meet       New Product Announcements Fallen Flag Railroad Forums       Erie / Lackawanna Railroad Forum       Raritan River Railroad Forum Railroad Software Forums       Atlas Right Track Software       Railroad Line Software Library Model Railroad Club Forums       The Model Railroad Club Forum Sponsor Forums       Rusty Stumps Scale Models       KingMill Enterprises Railroad Line Weblinks       Badger Creek Lumber Co.       Central Missouri & Southern RR       Raritan River Railroad       Thor's All Gauge Page  -------------------- Home Active Topics Frequently Asked Questions Member Information Search Page Railroad Line Forums © 2000-2020 Railroad Line Co.
