I've been working on a Civil War Route lately, but needed a break, so decided to do a bit on my own route, the Green Creek & Defiance, a fictional route from the 1920's that interchanged with the Northern Pacific. This is in OR.

Hi Steve,

Would you mind borrowing me your time machine so I can get my own bunch of photos from back then? ;)

Awesome work! http://www.elvastower.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/sign_rockon.gif

Cheers, Markus

I'd lend you mine, but it's in the shop again. Friggin' flux capacitors...

Pretty good shot there Steve. I recently started on a ~20s era project myself. I figure it ought to be pretty fun, and spur me to build some older stuff. I see a lot of cat's-eye reflectors in my future...

Here's another scene on the GC&D (The GC&D started way back and was my HO layout back about 1965). This is the town of Green Cr.

That is a Tim Muir model of NP class F-1 2-8-0 as built in 1888.

Doh, and I was already hoping upon reading your first few words http://www.elvastower.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/rotfl.gif

Let's see, maybe my recent studying of electrical engineering could make me help you out with those capacitors? http://www.elvastower.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/sweatingbullets.gif
