GEC's Layout Progress

[sailormatlac]

There's something really fascinating about your last picture. Those catenaries over a loooong deck bridge are simple, but so effective to carry the sense of a place... and not too hard to do! You've got yourself a great prototype (and I thought 70s were dul in terms of passenger traffic).

I'm just curious, are you planning, after getting ajob, to rework/enlarge the actual layout?

Good luck with your master degree. Anyway, model railroading is a lot about patience. I think most of us have great ideas about the hobby but still take decades to make them come true. It took 15 years between the time I decided to model the QRL&PCo and the first time I modelled a prototypical fregith car from this road. No wonder this hobby is the greatest among modelism!! Even Sumpter and others fellows here can't help themselves and insert their beloved ships into the train realm to bring them to life! ;-)
