Alcanman Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Those Alcos look great. How about some some pics of the R&W layout? Mal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gerbil-Fritters Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Very nice - I particularly like the idea of using existing RR schemes and just adding the R&W logo. Very authentic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

w124bob Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 Layout(plank!) is in it's very early stages where as the locos have been accumulated over several years, Interchange is with Conrail or Springfield Terminal with inspiration from the Battenkill hence the name, although a C630M is stretching credibility (Bowser WNYP 432 on order!) slight here are some more.

Dr Gerbil-Fritters Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Any excuse is ok for a C630M, after all the A&M had at least one! Loving this.bob- takes me back to my earliest US outline pike which was an all Alco Shortline.... (oh apart from some SD24/35) I still have them all boxed away, but they're all in SP now apart from the C420 which is in A&M.... that was a decalling challenge I can tell you!

w124bob Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 The A&M is one railroad despite being all Alco(yes I know they've acquired EMD's ) that never got my interest, some thing about the "all dressed up" look! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Accurascale Fran Posted November 16, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 16, 2013 I think I own the dirtiest Alco in Ireland (lots of Alcos here of course so it's a bold claim!) Still needs her numberboards, but you get the idea. Loosely based on a Scotia Coal RS2 but freelance really... http://www.flickr.com/photos/hunter1828/5565003943/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
w124bob Posted November 17, 2013 Author Share Posted November 17, 2013 Scotia Coal RS2 very nicely done looks cleaner than the real one! I came across those Flickr photos some time ago, some real gems among the shortline set, Shamrock Coal! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Accurascale Fran Posted November 17, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 17, 2013 Scotia Coal RS2 very nicely done looks cleaner than the real one! I came across those Flickr photos some time ago, some real gems among the shortline set, Shamrock Coal! Thanks! It looks dirtier in the plastic than in the pic, I guess it's the vividness of the yellow. I'll try another pic when I've finished it completely. There are some great ones alright, must check out more of them for further inspiration. Love your Alcos by the way, you just can't beat them! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
