Taconnet in On2

Finally putting the finishing touches on my Grizzly Mountain Engineering On2 version of the WW&F RY Taconnet, or the #6 combine. I just need to add the water gutters over there doors. A long time in getting this one done. Here is the Taconnet with the Vassalboro.

Cheers!

Arroyo Update

First post of the new year! and it is March....oh, well.
Over the holidays, I gave myself a birthday/Christmas present of three WildWest building kits for the Arroyo Tram. The extension is progressing nicely and I felt the need for some "townish" structures. I've completed two of them, though I might re-do the shingles on the fire house, they don't look quite right to me, not enough overlap. Live and learn!



I recently had a comment on how small the GrandtLine Gilpin cars look (see #24 in the background above). Below is the progression from the original ore car to the original with extension, to the larger car. They still look small next to a wood gondola! Still having fun as time permits.
