I made it to the big time

I received an email, from Bar Mills, that they posted a picture I sent them months ago, to their FB page.

I had my 15 minutes of fame.

Congratulations!

Go to their FB page and click on "Bar Mills Scale Model Work's Photo". You'll recognize mine in the top row, second from left.

This is the one they posted. I don't have FB either, but somehow I was able to see the page.

Earl's Oil, Old Dominion Broom, and Majestic Hardware

Better pictures of Majestic Hardware

Great looking builds and modeling! My friends will never believe I communicate with “railroad royalty”…

My 15 minutes of fame is over......back to being a mid 60's retiree that likes to build train stuff.

Outstanding pics! Thanks so much for sharing.

And with a cool screen name. My Dad has a 39 Mountie.

No, not that one. It's been over a month so mine is no longer at that spot. Scroll up about 5 spots in this thread and you will see the photo.

I'd say your Majestic Hardware is off the hook as well! Very nice modeling and detail.

Much appreciated. Thank you!

Congrats, great work and well deserved.

By the way though, don't underestimate this website either. Granted, it's certainly not Facebook, but I suspect it gets more traffic than their page does.

We have about 30,000 visitors per day. Granted a fair portion of those are bots/spiders etc, but it's still quite a lot of traffic. With a few days left in the month, we're well on the way to 1.1 million hits in April 2024.

It's fun to see your work out in the wild. Walthers used one of my photos for marketing their SD9, BN 6142. It was fun to see it in the flyers, back when I got them...
