Weathering Equipment

The engine I painted for Peter which he lettered for our W&Q Ry. modules. The decals are Sloan decals.

I pulled out a couple of pieces of On30" equipment that I acquired from Peter Mumby. We worked on these pieces together in the start. The photo shows some of the products I used in the weathering. More to Follow...George Dutka

Wordless Wednesday No. 178

 

  

A Small Extension !

To get a car or two out of the siding onto the main line Peter and I came up with this small extension made from scraps.

When Peter Mumby had his On30" module at home he needed a short piece of track on the right end so he could pull at least one car out of the siding. This was not a problem when the two modules are attached. We came up with this, that was just screwed on...George Dutka

Track Added

Yesterday I added the yard track I had to remove when I cut down the width of the module. The track is cut shorter to fit the scene. I have it laid in position at the moment. Now to cut in the roadbed and install. Snow day here in Southwestern Ontario today so not out of the house other than to shovel snow. Lots of modeling might happen once I get away from the computer...George Dutka

On30" Module

Well I got the Christmas decorations down and stored so now to do some modeling. I brought in from the garage Peter's module that I cut down and added some plaster cloth to the rough cut edges. While I wait for it to dry I am pulling out the track piece that needs to be added to the spur and ballast for the tracks. I have to get the electrical hooked up again to a transformer before mounting it on the wall. Lot easy on this rolling bench to just flip it over...George Dutka

SR&RL Railcars

A posed photo of the railcars at Farmington, Maine during a 10-1937 visit. Not sure how much equipment he saw that day. Note the tracks have all been removed.

A photo I scanned recently from a group I purchased at Springfield last winter...George Dutka
