With all that trash thought those 4 pix were for real until the last one with the three legged man on the left.

Hi all
59th and Rust had it's first exhibition at the weekend everything went ok, one of my freinds took this short video,there's a bit of background noise from the exhibition but you get a idea what it's like,may do one myself at a later date.

Great video. Nice to see the layout in action.
Did you have a sound module going? I heard seagulls!

Ralph, made the background sound myself,they run on a old sony walkman.
I've made a video of the Erie local switching 2 boxcars,it's not the best but it's a start,it gives you a idea how the layout works.

I love your videos. They are wonderful relaxing. Everything is so smooth and slow. Your switching speed matches the prototype very well. That is also the way how I operate my layout.

Hi all
Added the final pieces to the jigsaw,crossing bucks,lines on road
Also added a tree, always thought one would look ok,think it finishes the scene off?
The local predetors like the addition,as you can see the Red tailed kite sitting on the top branches,and the white cat on the lower one,both after the same rat!!!
Only thing left to do(maybe) is some manhole covers in the road

Looks great Ray
I think the tree really works well, adds a bit of contrast to the urban scenery.
Cheers,
Kev
