My fantastic model is leaving Hawaii soon :( ...and this was the result of our last photoshoot in Ewa Beach [Sunday, July 15th, 2007] . Out of 202 images--40 of them 'graduated' to keepers-which is quite an accomplishment. This particular shot is one of my fave's tho.

It's Freight Car Friday but instead of a specific car this week is just a simple view of the classic all American mixed freight train. It's heavy with boxcars including older Plate C cars and modern high cube Plate Fs along with a nice mix of gondolas, tank cars, covered hoppers, coiled steel cars, and center beam flat cars....a true modelers delight.
This is Norfolk Southern train 14Z, a Knoxville to Allentown manifest that came off the Pulaski District from Bristol and points south at Walton just a couple miles behind them.
They are approaching the Switchback Road grade crossing on Main 1 of modern day NS' Christianburg District at about MP N295.5 as they pass beneath the famous Vicker coal tower. This imposing structure was built in 1951 as a further example of the N&W's commitment to steam far longer than many other Class 1s. Alas it only served a short nine years before the last fire was dropped in May 1960. Prior to this being built there was a fascinating balloon loop trestle and loaded coal hoppers were spotted atop it to load coal directly from the railcar into the tender of a steam locomotive below.

These are all the LEGO models I built in 2010. Until I compiled these pictures, I felt I had a bit of a slow year. In particular in the last half of the year, when I started a new job in another part of the country and spent most of my time about 300 km from my LEGO collection, I haven't been building much of anything. However, I managed to crank out 27 LEGO models after all, which isn't bad.
Yes, I know, You'd rather see pictures of new models than collections of pictures of models you've already seen, but I've seen a few people do these in the last few days and like the idea. And anyway, I am going to be permanently reunited with my collection in about a month and have plenty of ideas for new stuff:
-a large 1/36 aircraft (most likely a B-52)
-a minifig scale WW-II bomber (most likely a B-17)
-a 1/22 scale jet fighter (most likely an F-16)
-a 1/22 scale helicopter (most likely an AH-64)
-a 1/22 scale infantry fighting vehicle (most likely an M2 Bradley)
-a 1/22 scale truck with stepframe trailer and back-hoe loader (currently already under construction)
-more buildings for Brickston Borough
-plenty of cars for the upcoming LUGNuts challenges, of course.
Happy 2011!
This is a model of the first board of Fez that I completed a few days ago. This is a brick-by-brick exact copy. I have tried to be true to the color and placement of all bricks in this model.
I have successfully submitted this to Lego cuusoo. If you are interested in this model it needs 10,000 supporters for lego to review it. Go there and give it support:
