Ric Keller's Amazing Layout Photographs
Ric Keller responded to my request for suggestions with this link to his pictures online. The level of detail in the modeling is great and the quality of the photography is just as good! If you like passenger trains you might want to take a look at the beginnings of my effort to gather data to model the passenger trains I like.
N Scale Model Railroad Website of the Week
I have decided to try something I hope will be fun for visitors and point them in the direction of model railroad related (mostly N scale) websites that they might not otherwise have come across.
I hope that visitors will find some inspiration in the site(s) I will bring here. I'd be glad to take recommendations for this page if you want to send me something.
Previous N Scale Websites of the Week
Well-travelled John Sing has quite a collection of pictures from various conventions and displays around the world. He also has a number of tutorials on his site including lowering a microtrains boxcar and (something on my wishlist) improving the Bachmann full dome. John's Santa Fe-oriented site will give a greater appreciation for what's out there. Take a look.
One of the things I would like to have on a layout is a nice engine facility with turntable and roundhouse. Steve Shanks' Erie Lackawanna layout has an engine terminal that looks just like what I imagine my own could be, except his is real and mine is still in the wishful thinking category. Take a look, and I think you will be impressed too. Steve uses DCC to operate his turntable. The rest of his site is equally worth visiting. Steve hosts this site on his own web server, so the techno geek part of me is jealous! Take a look; I don't think you will be disappointed.
