i completed assembling 2 atlas bridges and have 1 more to go. Once complete i'll be able to display some more engines since I dont have a layout.

No room in our apartment to even run a small oval or circle. I keep tossing around the idea of making a small diorama or module. That and I need to get off my but and join the local club down here, NYSME.

I am in the same posisition I do have a 4X8 table that I have track on but no real layout I do have on room in the basement that I need to install lighting and carpet in and start to build the tables but nothing solid yet. My other problem is that I am rarely home long enough to get anything done.
I have a feeling that this will change as I may be looking for a company to drive for that I will be home alot more. This Freight hauling is quickly becoming a joke played on us drivers. The requirements are becoming more then I can stand and it seems that every new DOT law and rule makes it harder to make pay that enough to justify staying away from home to do this job.
 
well if there were outlets in the basement of our building i could probably build something small in our storage area. Its just a chain link fence for each apartment. The size is probably around 6x6 or so.
 


Nice work on the BQ23-7 Josh, looks like it turned out pretty good.

Kats have accidents all the time, especially around model trains :D
We have Kat hitmen that will take care of your "problem" for a very reasonable maintenance fee.
 
The cab is cut from the Bachmann BQ23-7 that's no longer made. I picked up a few. The rest of the unit is an Atlas B23-7.
 
there's nothing wrong with the cat(S). Just funny how now this is his "place" to sleep now. Every other day its a new place.


Josh, where did you get those drawbars listed on your website? I'm thinking about getting a pack.
 


Josh, very nice job considering the locomotive is so ugly. :)

Steve, the green power thing was a sarcastic reference to the amount of money that's in the new bailout bill for green power. Cats do indeed seem to find a new place to lay down every day, usually on top of whatever you have that can break. You just need to put your bridge inside a plexiglass display box, firmly anchored to that shelf. Get an automatic reverser and then run your trains. It will drive the cat crazy. :D
