USA O scale in The Netherlands

ED,  thanks so much.  I searched the Bragdon molds, and they are very nice.  Do you remember off hand which ones you selected?  They have a very large selection available and are “reasonably” priced.  Thanks again for the help.

Bragdon have a lot of Molds Beautifult big Molds and what I did is use a mold and used pieces of it which I selected well I must find out I let you know.

A other view of the rocks

0-8-0 locomotive from PSC

For the 0-6-0 Southern locomotive fans a nice picture I know it is a yard locomotive but also great to run it by the rocks.

The shop goat and the reefer - what a love affair! Wonderful modeling, Ed!

Thanks Sarah.

What I said before you can do a lot with light so I tried something with the cars hope you all like it.

Is that a Red Caboose PFE reefer? Thanks!

It is a PSC Brass Reefer I have a several of them but not all weathered I'm still busy if I have time to work on my layout the time to weather all my models well that is a dream but I hope to have time in the future to finish some models. I have posted one reefer new from PSC a nice one that is. PSC has made beautiful reefers in the past.

In the meantime I have not sat still about building all those trees, this whole piece has been redone and it is not yet finished. On the bridge you see is a sunset Pacific Coast Shay is already equipped with new lettering

of my own company but it wil be completely done with new parts and of course the weathering I will show you as the shay is finished first is of course it must run good on my layout. This is a project I like. the light is not so good this time I will make better.

new one

I also working on a On3 track beside the yard and have build a new turnout hand build and this piece of the layout will be completely changed.

ED3945,

Beautiful work.

MELGAR

Thank you I tried the best what I can do. You see in those 2 pictures it is not big and I have no background I wish it was but my house it is not. What I do now it must also on the other side of my layout the yard that was the first in the beginning but far from finished so the time will go there and of course the locomotives. I can run all the way to the yard. I know you have seen a lot of this side but maybe better pictures those two I like it because the light change all the time.

Ed, 

You rock Man!!

Yves

thanks for the compliments I do my best hope it will what it is over there, I was there so make a lot of pictures to see what also the colors was of course a lot on internet and books. There are new pictures to show.

a lot of pictures to show how I started on the yard in the beginning years ago. Those pictures are not so good.

you see what light can do a total other picture of the rocks.

But the rock color is of course this, still amazing what you can get.

the color

Ed3945, Your layout is so realistic. The weathering on the buildings, especially the rocks and how they're painted, the tracks and groundwork. Everything is fantastic. 

Don

This is seriously some of the best modeling I've ever seen.  The use of lighting is cleverly perfected.

My name is Edwin maybe better and thanks the rocks are painted with water colors I use three colors the tracks all done by hand piece by piece. All the turnouts also building my self because if you buy one it never fit.

Beyond belief.  I've never seen scenery that realistic looking.  All that hand-laid track?  Infinite patience.

Yes it was day by day the tracks but it takes years to do it all if I have time of course

This is the shay I working on now what I showed earlier on this forum. I bought it as number 9 with his company on it and changed it in number 5 with my own. I first weather what you see on top of the tender but I will spray it a little back later on, so it will be more realistic of course the boiler and others will be done also. And what shay's makes so beautiful all those stuff on it

It's 2020 a beautiful year a lot of fun things to do on the hobby still working on my sunset shay but what I have done is my 3-way turnout. It works now finally was for more than 3 years not working. You see a KEY brass model on my yard by the turnout I like this model but as always on brass you buy it runs not so good a lot of work to do, hope I can fix it.

need more pictures of that shay 

I will do that for sure but my absolute favorite locomotive is the Challenger from Kohs it runs very good on DC and it is DCC I only run it on a straight track well DC I can't run it on DCC a hole new world for me.

The shay On3 from PSC run 2016 the last of it and it runs good well I have done a lot to run it good it have twin motors but the gearbox is not one of the best I fix it but still need work hope to weather this one day. I like the details on it a fine locomotive to see that for sure.
