Hi gents!
After viewing so many of your screenshots I want to share some of me with you. They`ve been taken on the Bridgton & Saco River RR. I am currently rebuilding this Maine 2-ft line. Ca a third of the scenery is on place. Anyway I must still build all its rolling stock ;-)
So enjoy the ride with Monson RR No 4 and some SR&RL coaches by Sandy River Tom.
Cheers,
Christian
Bridgton Junction - our train
Leaving the Junction
Crossing Hancock brook
and passing Rankins mill
creeping up the hill
and ruuning along the shores of Barker pond
squeezed in between thick forest and water.
Finally we cross the end of Barker pond
before we arrive at the flagstop of Twin Lakes.
Through thick forests,
cuts
and potatoe fields
we`re arriving at the "Notch" having a first view at Hancock pond.

Hey Christian!
You keep layin' track & I'll get the Car Shop Crew busy building the rolling stock!
The Monson RR only took 3 years; we should be able to get the B&SR released in . . . . maybe 5 years! :rofl:

Hi Nathalie, Hi Tom!
Thank you very much for your praise and your wishes :-)
I hope it doesn`t take 5 years. ;-)
1 year would be fine :-)
The MRR took that long because of corrections, corrections
and corrections again :-(
I hope I didn`t do so much errors like at the MRR ;-)
Looking forward for the rolling stock!
Cheers,
Christian

Hi Tom!
You make me getting red in my face :blink: Thank you for your great
compliment :jawdrop2:
And what about Maines most famous water house? It was photographed quite
often in the railfan hiday of the B&SR. The SR&RL head several similar ones
but unfortunatually they didn`t see the start of the railfanning era.
Cheeers,
Christian

Hi Ladies and Gentlemen!
I thought its time for some new pics. I arrived at Perleys Mills where I hope
to finish the work tomorrow. Also all my sawmills got better suiting ground textures.
My old ones had the "brown" painted to a much to large area. My new ones got some fresh
sawdust...
Recall: In the early 20ies sawmills where still a very lucrative biz.
Cheers,
Christian
Smalls Mill
Rankins Mill
Perleys Mills (still under construction)
