Very small but doesn't look packed at all. Very well done and effective!

Sven, what did you use to draw the track plan on the first page?

Hello,

I am glad you like it, thank you!

The track plan is drawn with Microsoft "Paint". Is made ​​very easy.

Your layout looks great! I really like what you did with the Grain Elevator area and the entire structure's weathering looks very good! Thumbsup

BTW, great work on the new engine facility too

Hello,

I did the first time weathered a locomotive with the airbrush.
It´s a Proto2000 RS27.

Hello,

I love the 1960's but I also like the modern time.
Therefore it is now time for "Back to the Future"!

My HO Layout is so constructed that I can represent the 1960's or the 2000's Era.
Depending on how I like it!
Clearly, I need just the cars, the locomotives and replace some buildings.

Look for yourself: Salinas Yard in the early 1960´s

And Salinas Yard in the 2000´s

Great Sven! One building only and you make a 40 years leap.

I really love your yard, little but works wonder and still looks right and not compressed.

I agree, Matt, he does a really good job of conveying atmosphere with a few brushstrokes, so to speak. One detail that conveys the modern period (are we up to Epoche VI yet in Europe?) is traffic cones. Pretty much anything someone might conceivably trip over on railroad property is now marked with traffic cones, and vehicles now usually carry them to put out when they park.             JL Innovative Designs makes some, and Bachmann is apparently going to come out with some with the reflective bands.
