From: Alan Lambert Fort Worth, Texas Bob,
Makes me want to come down and see it in person someday.

Boy this group is active today--Yes, that blob on the extreme left is actually the edge of a lift up as I'm standing in that area, so I'm actually looking behind my point of view. There are also some trees lying down that we removed for some service work. The thing sticking up behind the Leigh Valley feed mill doesn't belong to the layout--not really sure what it is! The shelving area in the middle of the shot is my collection of original AF and some modern OMI brass engines. The main shelf area above that really junkie area (called a workbench) are my more modern freight cars that I take to our modular display setups. And yes I have lot's of old photos, some of mine, some artwork and some memorabilia that I couldn't resist. I couple of items are pretty neat but some is really just junk--but it's my junk. To the right of the shelf and partially covering the window is a Plexiglas mirror angled at about a 45 degree. The mirror allows an operator to see behind the large roundhouse where a major turnout is located. A track-lite mounted spotlight really helps in that effort. One thing that I'll mention about my modern car storage shelf you might find useful--it's deep enough to store two cars side by side. I also used a router to cut grooves to hold the flanges so the cars will not run away unto the floor without a great deal of help. I don't know if the flangeways follow NMRA/NASG specs! <G> Thanks again, Bob Werre On 2/24/13 2:44 PM, Bob Werre wrote: >I lied, and on a Sunday too!
