F-UnitMad, there's a Pecos River CF-7 on eBay now... https://www.ebay.com/itm/192404749130 Thanks, Damin.

Every year around the 4th of July, the Illinois Railway Museum hosts a Traction Weekend which focuses on their collection of electric streetcars, interurbans, and rapid transit equipment. I was out on Saturday, July 1st, and Sunday, July 2nd, and shot these videos of the trains that they were running... Enjoy, Damin.

Cannot wait to see, I mean, hear it in action! Thanks, Damin.

Thanks guys! Definitely a lot of great layouts there! Almost seems like the show would need a second day just to see everything. Thanks, Damin.

Thanks F-UnitMad. Would you mind posting a link to the TVNAM thread? I seem to be having trouble finding it! Damin.

Glad to hear that the exhibition went well. Was this the layout's public debut? I'd love to see more pictures (or video) if you have then. Thanks, Damin.

Ask and ye shall receive! http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/76606-kitbashing-the-weaver-o-scale-gp38-2/ Thanks, Damin.

Thanks F-UnitMad, Yes, I am also using a Weaver GP38-2. Mine will be a model of Soo Line 4512 when it is finished. Photos of the actual 4512 can be found at http://www.railpictures.net/showphotos.php?road_number=Soo%204512. BTW, I'm a big fan of your Schiller Point layout. If fact, my layout is not that "far" from yours, as it is meant to represent a spur line serving one of the many industrial parks in the vicinity of the Bensenville, IL yard and O'Hare Int'l Airport. Thanks, Damin.

It's just Atlas 2-rail #5 turnouts and flextrack. - Damin.

Ah, but I also mentioned that I was busy preparing my own layout for a show next month! Shouldn't that count as an excuse? I've got some photos from the first show posted here, http://model-railroad-hobbyist.com/node/10708. They are on the second page, scroll down to the comment titled "My First Layout Exhibition -- The Results." These were taken last March. They aren't the greatest as I didn't have a chance to take any photos until Sunday afternoon after the show had ended. By then the Sun was shining directly on the layout, making the lighting quite harsh for my little camera. Hopefully, I have a chance to take better photos at the next month's show. BTW, it's the Railroad Prototype Modelers meet on October 17-19. So if you're not busy playing trains, then you have no excuse for not crossing the pond to attend! Thanks, Damin.

Nice job on the hopper cars! Would love to attend the show and see your layout in person but I'm on the wrong hemisphere. Can't wait to see pictures from the show. Meanwhile, I toiling away on my own layout that's set for its second outing this October. Thanks, Damin.

Hi Everyone, In order to avoid continuing to hi-jack this thread, I've started a new thread here about the Baldwin 3D locomotive project. Thanks, Damin.

Can you send them in a private message? I'm new and still figuring my way out with the RM forums. Thanks, Damin.

298, Interested topic; I'll be following this. If anyone has dimensioned line drawings of a GE boxcab, I volunteer to model it in 3D. Thanks, Damin.

I have an IKEA right down the road from me that I've been to several times. How in the heck did I miss this concept! I'll be following this topic with interest. Thanks for posting it. - Damin.
