Johns workbench: Wiring the Hon3 engine terminal
http://johnsworkbench.blogspot.com/2014/07/wiring-hon3-engine-terminal.html
Thursday, July 10, 2014. Wiring the Hon3 engine terminal. Between working on my bathroom remodeling project and this, I've just about finished wiring this up. I wired this so that if I decide to put blocks in at some later date, it will be real easy to do. I highly recommend using some sort of connectors on the wires, makes it real easy to make changes, plus don't have to worry about a stray wire strand causing a short. Since I'm using DCC, I'm ganging all the wire feeds together. Chris Nevards Model Rai...

Johns workbench: Hon3 Engine Terminal complete
http://johnsworkbench.blogspot.com/2014/12/hon3-engine-terminal-complete.html
Tuesday, December 23, 2014. Hon3 Engine Terminal complete. Finally finished up the engine terminal. Finished building the Campbell sandhouse, I built it with the sandtower on the other end similar to the Chama tower layout. Dragged it outside for a few pictures. Need to tone down the grass a bit I think. I'm going to finish the Westerfield cars I started earlier and then? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Black Log Valley Railroad.

Johns workbench: Westerfield car builds
http://johnsworkbench.blogspot.com/2014/09/westerfield-car-builds.html
Tuesday, September 23, 2014. While I'm waiting for my sandhouse to arrive, I thought I'd build though some of my stack of Westerfield car kits. I've probably built over a hundred of these over the years. This batch I got on eBay for around $12 a car. I like to build them in batches, as it seems to go faster. I'm building a W1 B&O hopper, 2 PRR H21a hoppers and a PRR GTRA gondola. I work on a glass table which helps to keep everything square. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Black Log Valley Railroad.

Johns workbench: October 2010
http://johnsworkbench.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 24, 2010. 1/48 scale Tamiya bulldozer. I recently picked up one of the Tamiya 1/48 scale Japanese bulldozer model. I'll be using it on my On30 model of the Chili Line I've been working on. It's a very simple kit, it only took me about an hour to get it ready for paint/weathering. The parts are crisply moulded with no flash, but since it's from Tamiya, what else would you expect! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Black Log Valley Railroad. Nirvana Valley Model Railroad.

The "RLM Original" Line
http://www.dcscalemodels.com/inspiration
The RLM Original Line. The RLM Original Line. Has been invaluable to me as I work my way from 'not knowing much' about producing model kits, to growing credibility. The 9 kits that I purchased in 2011 from Banta Modelworks are now branded "RLM Original" out of respect to his original work. All the kits are proportioned to 1:64, S scale. All of the kits appeared as SCD kits in 'O' scale over a period of years. The RLM Original Line. The Shed - DCSM Kit #1. Where can I get kits?

Johns workbench: Hon3 engine terminal track
http://johnsworkbench.blogspot.com/2014/06/hon3-engine-terminal-track.html
Wednesday, June 18, 2014. Hon3 engine terminal track. I've got almost all the track down, the only one left is the elevated track to the coal tower. The turnouts are Shinohara with Peco flex. I used 9 pieces of flex on this. Next up is to wire this and paint the track. I painted the 3 pieces for the roundhouse before gluing them in. I used Walthers Goo to hold the rails in place over the pits. Below you can see the shims to raise the track. 03 shims added to the bottom of the RH floor.
