Outstanding!
I see it is on team track too http://teamtrack.soforums.com/f15-LAYOUT.htm That french site is highly recommended even if you can't read a word like me. It is full of eye candy!

Wonderful! Inspiring images of structures, urban scenery and weathering of equipment!

WOW Franck!
Especially the second photo with the BN F unit and the containers, i had to look several times: "Is this the reality or a model?" Lutz

Schraddel Wrote:WOW Franck! I'll definitely second that !! There were, however, two "details" that clearly stated "model". The perfect spiral of heavy "wire" along the top of the fence, the fence itself was as close to perfect as I have seen, and the magnetic uncoupler pin, on the boxcar. Then again, it has taken me well over 60 years to develop and hone, my modeling skills....... and they are still not without an occasional :oops: :oops: 'nough said.
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve. Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!

Great looking module, is that a guard dog behind the fence in the second photo?

Franck, it's incredible. The second picture is without a doubt a prize-winning one.
Your larger scale work was already beyond word and and was easy to think the large scale made it easier to reach a high level of realism, but definitively, whatever the size you can do it! Not only the detailing is great, but I feel your choice of colors, particularly how you realistically fade them, is the most distinctive feature of your work. Thanks for sharing. Matt

Do you know Vi Rogue? He's a facebook friend of mine, I've seen the F unit elsewhere, and I recognise the module, particularly also the trainers hanging over the telegraph wires :-) Excellent modeling :-) I think Vi may have showed me some of it previously.

Thank you for the kind comments.
We will try to do the new layout as good of the old one. It will be an hard work, because the teams that did the layout are gone now. For the small details like : -the barbed wire that is too thick, we are going to re do it, - for the magnetic uncoupler pin, on the boxcar we are going to remove all and add also air hoses to reach an higher level of trueness
