Hi All,
While searching around the net i found this site with large drawings of locos ..... superb for references ........ some of the images are large but if saved to your pictures go to a good useable size.

Another Auto-Carrier |

Well i completed another auto-carrier last night. Well i didnt really complete it, they bth still needs to be weathered an decaled for a private hauler.... Anyways, i finished adding on the details, and im quite happy with how this one turned out.
This one is a Promotex Kenworth T-600 with a Flat Top Sleeper. I added Front Fender Mirrors, Diamond Tread Frame Crossover Platform and Frame Crossover steps, as well as the supplied Promotex Cab Mirriors, Horns, and Grabs. I also moved the fifth wheel back on the frame. The Auto-Rack was custom fitted on the cab, and like the other, the trailer is a Walthers Auto-Carrier. Here are 5 pics of the new one and 6 more of the other one, the Mack CH603 Day Cab Auto-Carrier:

This past weekend, Dr Wayne and I went on the "Doubleheaders" layout tour in the Kitchener-Waterloo area of southern Ontario. The tour is self-directed, so you sign up at the club HQ and armed with a map, and GPS, set off to see the member's layouts. The map has a list of the various layouts with descriptions of scale and theme, so you can pick and choose the ones you want to see.
Our first stop was at a new RR club, tucked way around the back of a small industrial complex, with tracks running behind as well. They were in the process of cleaning up and prepping the space for a large layout, and had also started work on a modular layout for shows. It will be interesting to go back next year to see what progress they've made.
This is the next layout. I was planning to be a lot more organized about this, but I'm afraid I'm just not that kind of person!!! I can tell you it was HO, and featured thousands of beautifully crafted trees all over the hills, and some very nice CSX motive power.
Dispatcher's corner:
Stunning scenery:
Plexiglass sides protect the layout across the duckunder:
Just outside of the layout room. I love the trains across the mantel. This track continues along, under the stairs and connects back to the layout again.
