I Finally got the layout back up and running over New Year, so I thought I'd take some new photos showing areas which are not normally seen from the front of the layout. The subjects are an Intermountain U18B and an Athearn CF7, as yet unweathered or sound-fitted.










And one from the front

Most excellent modeling and photography Jon!

Great pics. Keep 'em coming!

The second shot of the U18, looking under the wood bridge........I really thought you had sneaked in a prototype photo there.
To the point where I had to go looking for the "giveaway". I found it, the "uncoupling pin".
You have an excellent mix of shape, color, and small detail that makes all the difference in the appearance of your scenery, and the lighting, and quality of the photo, certainly added to the effect.
Sweethome Alabama, is definitely "sweet".

A few more photos added this evening, this time of Short line locomotives

Wiregrass Central GP38






Birmingham Southern GP38-2s

Outstanding combination of modelling and photography---great scenes,please keep them coming

I'm always amazed each time I see your layout. Every little detail is done with extra care! And so small...

Matt

Every picture is jaw-dropping..!! I too had to look twice at some of those photos to be sure they were models....

A few photos of the latest repaint/sound fitted loco









Now for a Southern High Hood GP30

Great weathering on that loco..!!
I've got a couple of UP diesels (SD-7 & GP-7), and an old Tyco GP-20. I think I might try my hand on the Tyco...If I ruin it, no big loss...
If I don't, I'll do the other two.

Any pointers..??

Great layout! I love your wooden bridge.....

Absolutely stunning work!
