Cheers,

Yaah! I love that shot #3. That hair-pinned curved trestle looks fantastic. :sign_welcome:

Hi Walter, Hi Rick!

Thank you very much for the kind words. :-) Although its not very visible on the pics
we`re coming slowly back into more densely settled areas:

The station of South Bridgton is the last one amidst nowhere.

Enjoy its pics,

Christian

Hi Nathalie!

Glad to hear that you like my progress :rolleyes:

Behind South Bridgton the scenery gets a lilbit more
open, while the woods are retreating a bit.

Cheers,

Christian

Hi ladies and gentlemen!

My B&SR construction team passed now the village of Sandy Creek. Thank Paul Charlands fine hint with
building several buildings en bloc I managed also to keep the object number just about 600. But the real challange is Bridgton. Just with tracks and streets alone I am already at 340. And its just 1.5 miles away!

But at first enjoy Sandy Creek.

Cheers,

Christian

I have been enjoying watching the progress!

I have spent enough time in Maine to know that there is a lot of nowhere for tracks to run through.

Yes, in Maine, you're never very far from nowhere.

Christian:
That's an interesting little logging loco.
I'm not sure the 0-4-0 would work in 2-foot-gauge, but the
2-4-2T would be a fun 2-foot freelance.

OTOH, I could use many parts from the SG 4-4-0 to build the
SG 0-4-0 if there was interest from the logging guys.

Hi Tom, Hi Chris!

Its the A-Climax from Boyd Lumber :-) The Loco I sent you for finishing some time ago
is a 042. If you like, you could convert it into a 242 :pardon:

Well, today is MSTS disaster day. Due to problems with some payware stuff I am setting up MSTS from zero again... My 1st try failed... Its already 6 hours that I am involved in this task :rofl:

BTW: The SG 0-4-0 would be fine ;)

Cheers,

Christian
