I need to get on the maintenance department I’ve found at least a dozen loose spikes. 

Eric -

Very  nice work, and thanks for sharing the build. I really like the water as well... Well done!

I have the same issue above, but I term it as more of a loose screw!

Take care and include us in the future builds.

Thanks Dick and J Daddy for the comments. Sure Brightened my day

I know it's an overused phrase on forums like this, but this photo looks REAL. I don't simply mean that it's very realistic, I mean it looks like you stood lineside at the Illinois RR museum and caught their streamliner on a run somewhere.

There's nothing in this photo that even suggests this is anything but a 1:1 reality.

I need to be careful with that so I need a few of these to disprove the naysayers...

Erik is engaging in what I refer to as "scary modeling". This is where the model looks so much like it's a 1:1 photo that it's scary anyone can model like that. 

I’m not sure Bill, at the moment unless something comes up the next scheduled event we are planning on doing is October 2018 at the Hobby Expo and this is not certain as it’s so far out. If offered space we would be willing to set up anytime. I’ve often considered contacting Children’s Hospital in Aurora colorado and offered setting up for a 3 day weekend.

not uncommon though in the real world!

Indeed. I saw several loose spikes on the (BNSF) main last night while waiting to photograph a Amtrak train. I noticed several loose spikes, a couple were almost completely out.

Sure, nice photo shop work. Seriously thanks for posting all these great photos, hopefully you will motivate others to do some work and post it on the forum. You positively have a fantastic ability both modeling as well as the photos! Thanks again for letting us use one of you photos for the cover of our 2018 catalog.

Marty, it’s an honor you wanted to use it! Be sure and give one to Leighton or Jeff so I can get one. Good luck this weekend sell lots!
