Thanks again, Charlie.
Adding lighting can also be motivating. I can't wait to see how the lights will look when i'm finished.

Here are a couple more photos of this scene.

I like the lighting on the second picture best. It appears to be lit with only the lighting around the shop as it would really appear.
That is a very life-like scene for sure.

Hello Greg---those CNR steam locomotives are a beautiful addition to this realistic scene---I can almost smell the coal smoke---thanks once more for sharing these pictures.

Hi everyone, well I have gotten the roundhouse back roof built & tarpapered.
I have also built the little coal shed that comes with this kit for the powerhouse.
I still need to weather the back roof and install the smoke vents then the roundhouse will be completed.
Then I can finish the machine shop interior and this project will be done!

Wow! Great nighttime shot, and that LED work is spectacular. If I had that I don't think I'd ever run anything during the daytime!

Thanks! TMo. Yes lighting structures up with LED's is a bit of a curse, once you start you can't stop doing it.

Hi everyone, just a quick update for you today. I now have the back roundhouse roof weathered and the smoke jacks installed.
Here are a couple of pics showing you that work.

Hi everyone, well it looks like my steam engines are taking up residence in their new/old roundhouse.
Here are a couple of photos showing how that looks. The roundhouse crew was kind enough to pull each engine out from their stalls so we could view them better.
