RE: Freelance 2019-1 - faraway - 04-29-2019
Got two BLI UP SW1500 and made some cosmetic changes to fit my past Y2000 layout.

Paper containers from http://www.norbtach.nl/bouwplaat/ are a nice alternative to background buildings.

The container yard got a wall with simplified barb wire on top. Black wires to support two lines of strand on top. The pins will support the wall over night.
There is also one of my two kit bashed CSX GP38-2. I used again a Trainman drive, a Athearn RTR shell, a Tsunami 2, 0402 SMD LEDs and some detail parts.

ps. Flickr's separation from Yahoo is not totally trouble free. I cancelled my Yahoo account but can not update the Flickr login to another than the Yahoo email address. Reported it twice toFlickr but no response so far.
I am afraid Flickr will block my access when Yahoo does not approve the login with their address anymore.

Reinhard,Those two UP SW1500 looks like veteran work horses.. Nice job on the weathering.

Downsizing complete
I got four Atearn RTR GP40-2 and put them with Tsunami 2, LEDs and some details on four Trainman drives some years ago. Great but I am not a turbo sound fan. I had to do it all again over the last month. Got four Athearn RTR GP38-2 and plugged them with Tsunami 2 , 32 LEDs and some details on four Trainman drives.
The GP40-2 shells and the Trainman drives were easy to obtain at that time. To get four RTR CSX YN3 shells was a much more difficult process this time.

Welcome the red FCEN 50 on the layout after the black FMID 63 was four days in the shop.
ps. Might be the stacks will shrink somewhat in the hot summer sun ;-)
