Morning Guys,

Thought I would kick of the WPF for this week, even though I have nothing of interest, looking forward to your posts.

I have started on a shelf layout based in Bend Oregon called the stockyard spur. This was served by the SP&S and this portion has a wood chip loader, pumice loading and a lumber re-manufacturer.

The Shops

Nice Greg, I love the conveyors and loaders they should bring in a good variety of cars!
Here's where I left off on the shop build, still waiting for parts to come in:

Hey Rico - the shop looks great!

How is the head doing? No long term symptoms I hope.

As always, a great start. Here is my contribution.

I find locomotive servicing tracks fascinating. Well represented, looks great!

Thanx Gary! And the noggin's better but still get the odd headache, should fade away over time.

Here is my D&H engine terminal.

It looks like we're off to another good week with the stockyard spur, shop (cool cars too,) locomotive servicing tracks, and engine terminal. All look great and professional! My contribution for this week is a Cotton Mill. There were a lot of these operating down South until polyester took over the clothing industry in the 1970s; now most are deserted or torn down buildings.





Thanks for looking,
D.A.

My contribution is my newest ebay find, a NP GP 18 waiting for my new layout to be completed. I was surprised to see all the detail and how smoothly it ran on the test track.






Very nice selection of photos this week! Great job to all who have contributed! Next week I will have some shots of my new building.

I really like the NP paint scheme. As my layout is set in Montana I could sneak in an NP loco. maybe patched for my AWRR

Great shots guys and maybe I will have something before the week is out as well.

I have been playing with the 1/1 scale trains lately. I had 2.5 seconds of fame yesterday and got my mug on Faux Morning Show in Rochester, NY live broadcast. I be the old guy with with a beard near the end of the segment... The problems with the video is due to the camera being close to mile away from the truck with the equipment...

Ray, the "old guy with a beard" looks more like a railroader than the other guys. For a second there I thought you might be picking that girl up off the deck! LOL
