    Not really into trains or anything locomotive really. But there is something about a setup like yours Lee that just brings out the 'boy' in you. I don't think I am motivated enough to keep going at such a huge. project. I tip my hat to you Lee for your dedication to your building.

        Thanks so much for the nice complement I really appreciate it I’m glad you like it. When I work on my layout I do it for satisfaction to myself but when I get a complement like yours it’s worth the hard work.

              Where do you obtain your period references from Lee? It all looks very convincing!

                I Got mostly from my Dad he lived in that time frame. He also was a Trucker back in the early 50s to the late 90s so that helped too. He drove a truck identical to this Mack H around 1963 that’s where I got the inspiration to build this one.

                    Absolutely LOVE this… takes me back to the days visiting with my grandfather who built a replica of a town here in western PA with a train layout that surrounded and ran through town. He even built some of his own rail cars…thanks Lee
