Re: Nominations for project 35
Well a couple of years ago I suggested a bridge that was fairly well received. There are several bridge types available in all scales. I personally need some ballasted deck bridges for my area around

Bruce, would Pennsy subsidiaries equipment be acceptable? I'm thinking in terms of, for example, the LIRR steam rotary, which is now at Steamtown. The rotary was delivered after the blizzard of '88,

Re: a PB70R project - progress
Thanks Paul.
Thanks Rod. The lighting is actually the same, in the earlier photo I had placed a more neutral color surface in the background to hide the influence of the dark and fairly intense buff /

Re: a PB70R project - progress
Chuck,
Lighting color looks great. You changed to a warmer color LED or did you use a colored film? In photo IMG1162, that is a BLI P70 in the background with the cooler white interior lighting,

Thanks! On the railings, I drilled freehand. It helps to have a sharp bit, but it was a PITA! I often use a pin to create a starter hole. On scratchbuilt parts, I just make more than I need and
