a picture a day....

Wow Bill T. Thanks for posting the Kushan Army train. I am not sure I have ever seen one out side of magazine pictures before.  What a great collectible.

The wonder of 3R O gauge.  On the floor with a Mountain Dew truck behind a ‘59 Dodge Royal Lancer, a fantasy S3 blowing out the cylinders next to an AC6000, and wait, are those panda bears in the background, and snow on that tree top?  What’s wrong with this picture?

Like all of your scenes, this one is superb. The photo shows great preparation, thought and composition. Your posing of the figures of the workers tells a story in and of itself. Bravo!

Your telephone/telegraph poles look quite realistic. Are they scratch-built? If so, What did you use for the insulators?

Thank you.

Randy, thanks for noticing them, I can't take credit as I built them from an article in a magazine which showed how to do it. Used beads of green and a few clear mounted on straight pins, the pins were also used for the pole arm brackets.
