Coal, coal, coal. Raritan Valley Hi-Railers at Greenberg's Show Edison!

Really nice representation. Thanks for the photos.

Very impressive for a Modular layout. 

I have a few more pics I took, I was mainly wanting to show the coal related buildings. I'll pop the other pics I took when I get home tonight.

Thanks to all who came out to the show Thanksgiving weekend. We really appreciate the feedback and the positive remarks. We work hard in the workshop year round the keep the layout looking fresh. Stay posted for some newer modules in production now. And again thank you to all for coming out to the shows and talking with us.

Matt, I really love what you guys bring every event I go to. I spend some time just marveling at what you guys achieve. I'll have to see what you guys are cooking up on your FB page as I haven't looked recently, but remember when the above was posted there nearly complete.

Dave,

Thank you very much. That means a lot. It's kind words like yours is why we keep working on new modules. Not to spoil the supprise but we are working on one with another water feature (of course using real water). Keep watching our Facebook page we try to keep up with it. We also have an Instagram page if you are on that  (just search Raritan Valley Hirailers) again thanks again and make sure to come say hi at the December show.

Dave, 

 Matt has a special gift that has really brought a lot of life to the layout. Of course,  he likes to design things to as close to real as possible and share his talents with anyone willing to learn. Unfortunately for me, I get to do most of the electrical on our layout, and not to take anything away from Mike Losi, who's been getting pretty good with electrical himself. Mike is good with design & scenery on the layout as well and we have some others that are pretty good with building modules. (Jeff, Shane, Cliff & others) There are a lot of ideas rolling around these guy's heads.  My biggest challange is trying to get Matt to run his trains!!!!

   Steam Forever

Missed the show  Thanks for posting pics   That is a new structure that they built  I heard about it but its good to see it

Might be hard for me to get out on the 30th, but I could try for the 31st. December is always busy in general, and whenever anyone has more than 2 seconds, they disappear even faster. See if I can make things happen. Hope there is some steam running.

Here are the rest of the pictures I shot(sorry I didn't get the whole layout)

I really love the city scenes(especially the power lines all over the place).

Dave,

Thanks. I'm actually giving a seminar at the December Greenberg show on building those telephone poles. Should be both days not sure of the time we don't usually find that out until set up day but there usually at 1:00 PM. Hopefully you can make it.

Matt

That would be interesting to see. I've always liked the crazy poles before that got all standardized but that would not fall into anything modeling after that early 19 teen's I think. Think that changed somewhere in the very early 1900's(1906 or 7?). See what comes.
