Okay with me. Since we originally did this, uploading photos has become lots easier, with better results. I note that what few photos we have here now have "Photobucket" plastered scross them. Happy to re-do them or add more.
I also note that TCA-Western has lifted many of my photos from OGR and used them without attribution, often with incorrect data and notes. We are working to correct that - it is at least unethical to use another's work without attribution, and likely a copyright infringement.
While I dislike copying photos over and over again in the same thread, if a modeler wishes to use my photos elsewhere, I will happily give my permission, provided the caption says something like "model and photo by Bob Turner."
Here is a sort-of Lobaugh - all parts are genuine Lobaugh, but the model is an AC-6, something Lobaugh never marketed. All you need are spoked drivers and the tender off of a prewar Mountain:
I don't think you can see it, but I have re-done the tail beam and pilot beam in heavy brass to more closely follow SP erection drawings (which I have in my "Church" books). The tender shown is not Lobaugh, but rather an Adams casting set with my wrapper soldered on - I do have genuine 100% Lobaugh tenders, and this one should get one of those. As I keep saying, "someday."
