    Obviously. We RARELY have chop unless in open water. Look at the Maine coastline. See a lot of open water?
  • kebmokebmo

  • EricMGEricMG

    Eric,

    The signs in and on the buildings along with the vehicles and carefully weathered structures really set a mood. The shadows in your last photo make a viewer feel as though they were actually at the location.

    great shots of what looks to be a fantastic layout.
  • EmeryJEmeryJ
    I got a whole bucket of WOW to give you on this. So much detail!
  • EricMGEricMG
    Thanks! It is coming. The huge yard should be cool.

    I'm late to the party on this one and have a lot of scrolling to do. What I see is superb. The big NYC steam engine is always welcomed.
  • JohnM2104JohnM2104
    How many years have you been working on this layout?
  • Robert.GRobert.G
    Every time I look at Eric's layout, I discover new details. Just fantastic ,the real life scenes.
  • EricMGEricMG

    Eric, your progress is excellent with an outstanding level of attention to detail. This inspires me to achieve comparable results.
  • MountaingoatMountaingoat
    Eric, there are no words that can describe your work. Not just the attention to detail, but the overall essence of each scene. It's easy to picture yourself walking down these streets. It's not a model, but an experience. Rick

  • kebmokebmo

    Keb, so far it is 24 by 37 feet. But it might expand into another room. Why not, right?
  • JohnM2104JohnM2104
    Eric that's beautiful. I appreciate the great photo. Here's another few for you.Mohawk

    John, nothing like BIG steam!
  • JohnM2104JohnM2104
    Very true Eric. I run UP big boys, Clinchfield Challengers, assorted PRR, N&W NH, a DM&IR Yellowstone and of course NYC. Every once in awhile I put it all away and run Conrail, CSX and NS with big freight cars.
  • JohnM2104JohnM2104
    Hey Kevin, if you have any influence with the "dorks" over at MR, please feel free. However, you will need to tag along for the visit as I'd rather just meet you, quite frankly.

    Layout Drawing Resized
  • JohnM2104JohnM2104
    Hevin, I tried my best here as the origional document was in Adobe. I used the snipping tool and then resized it like a photo. Hope this helps?
  • EricMGEricMG
    I just bought the Visionline Clinchfield Challenger. Of course it only worked for about 4 minutes. On its way back to Lionel.
  • JohnM2104JohnM2104
    Eric, that looks like a nice piece. I have 2 from MTH and one went back for repairs immediately. Programming them in DCC was a nightmare, so I finally gave up and run them as #3! As I don't run all my stuff too often they are holding up for the mmoment. Hopefully your locomotive comes back home soon?
  • MountaingoatMountaingoat
    Wish I had that space for a layout. Looks good for sure. Rick
