Something New for the module

A metal structure is always a nice way to practice my weathering. It has doors on both sides.

I picked up this part built structure in O scale for a couple of bucks a number of years ago. I spent a bit of time this winter finishing it off, weathering and detailing the sides...more to follow...George Dutka

Structure Updated!

As the completed structure looked at the Narrow Gauge Show.

I spent sometime before the Ontario Narrow Gauge Meet to update Peter Mumby's O scale structure from his module. I think it looks much better now with a weathered wall, newer signs and a lot of details added that we did not have at the time of the build...more photos to follow...George Dutka

Ontario Narrow Gauge Show

This is what I came away with from the show.

On the weekend I attended my area's narrow gauge show. I had a display of my Maine two-footers in On30" and HOn30". I came away with a bit on Maine two-foot also. Mark Harris is downsizing his collection and there was some neat stuff to pick from...photos tell the story...George Dutka

The structures I picked up all built my Mark Harris.

Mt. Albert had their off cuts for sale which are a good deal. I always pick up a bundle.

Mark Harris work.

There was a good amount of photos and wall art to choose from.

Mt Albert had a nice group of offering of detail parts for sale in O scale.

Updated

This structure is off my late friend Peter Mumby's On30" module that I now have. We built our structures together. I thought I would take if further recently by adding some extra weathering to it, newer details, a platform out front and some extra signage. I will have it at the narrow gauge show this weekend. More on it will follow shortly...George Dutka
