Reply to "Sunday Scenic Showcase April 18, 2021"

It's been quite a while since I've posted anything to the showcase so here are a couple shots of a Union RR switcher and coke rack. The switcher is a Railking MP15 that has been modified for 3 rail scale with scratchbuilt fixed pilots and Kadee couplers. I also used a few commercial detail parts as well as some scratchbuilt ones to complete the build.

The coke rack started life as a Lionscale 9 panel hopper and has been heavily kitbashed to represent those used by the Union RR. I had custom decals made by Highball Graphics.

This layout no longer exists. I started building it in an unfinished basement room and shortly after getting trains running I knew I made a mistake. After four years I decided I had to finish the room and consequently the layout had to come down. So last fall I started dismantling everything and getting ready for the remodel. The room is now finished and a new layout is underway. Bench work is built, track is down and wired, and I'm looking forward to getting started on scenery.
