Sanders Drop-in Diorama

The structure is mounted on a piece of Gatorfoam which works very well as a base. 

I had my small drop-in scene out the other day which I had took some photos of recently. I thought I would share them with you. I had covered how I built the structure a few years back here on the blog and also RMC...George Dutka

Coal Storage

I took this photo last November of my small diorama. A neat little model in O scale.

I built this cast plaster coal storage structure a number of years ago. I placed it on a small base for display but it will be used on an upcoming smaller On30" layout...George Dutka

WW&F - 2025 Model Railroad Planning

Here in Canada getting copies of railway magazines is getting hard with tariffs and the exchange of the dollar. Hobby shops, book stores, drugstores and grocery stores are dropping these magazines. I can see why with the changed approach MR is taking with returns. The last two hobby shops that I have been in don't carry MR anymore and RMC prices are now at least 15.95 which includes all the new costs the shops are facing. 

Anyhow I recently did find a copy of Model Railroad Planning 2025. I was presently surprised to see a feature on modeling  the WW&F included done by Peter Leach. A great smaller layout built in a spare room. There is hope for us without much room to have a layout and not just build models. Great article and good work Peter...George Dutka
