I recently decaled the black 29' "beer can" tank car you see here. I wanted more of the short cars but the manufacturer only makes them in green for Procor. While nice, I wanted to see one in black for a change; so I made one.

One of the catalogue shots I made for Alpine Division Scale Models. It is 1:87th scale or "HO". I made the model and the base diorama. I shot the background photo in Lee Vining Ca.

Holiday Model Railroad

British Railways 9F number 92021 sits in a quarry yard on a cold and cloudy Monday morning, waiting for a clear line. This engine was part of the batch of ten with the unique Franco-Crosti boiler, designed to make them more fuel efficient. Note the very worn track condition, typical of privately owned sidings.

SP 918 started her life as a fully decorated MTH HO SD70ACE. This was done for a customer of mine and this is what he wanted.

I smiled when I checked this challenge as we were headed to The 43. Hadley had just put together a layout for me last week.

He volunteered to do tracks of his tears so maybe later.

Eindelijk was het weer zover dat Eurospoor georganiseerd kon worden. Dit jaar was Eurospoor weer een grootse happening; meerdere hallen met modelbanen en kraampjes. Er was ook dit jaar weer veel schitterends te zien. Zoveel zelfs, dat ik de meeste banen die ik al eerder had gezien en gefotografeerd, heb moeten overslaan om alles toch nog te kunnen bekijken. Deze foto's zijn dus een selectie van alle banen die tentoongesteld waren.

Entlich, nach einige Jahre, konnte Eurospoor wieder organisiert worden. Dieses Jahr war Eurospoor wieder eine schöne, grosse Ausstellung. Und es wurde wieder Gross ausgepackt; mehere Säle mit Modellbahnen und Ständen. Es war viel schönes zu sehen. So sehr, dass ich die meisten Modellbahnen, die ich vorher gesehen hatte, überspringen musste um noch die Chance zu haben, alles zu sehen. Diese Bilder sind somit eine Auswahl aller ausgestellten Arbeiten.

After a few years of absence, Eurospoor could be organized again. This year, Eurospoor turned out to be a big happening again. There was a lot to be seen; several halls with model lay-outs and stalls. There were a lot of beautiful lay-outs. So much so that I had to skip most of the lay-outs I had seen before, to still have a chance to see everything. These pictures are thus a selection of all the jobs that were exhibited.

this is for my photography class, we had to photograph something with a letter of the alphabet in it.
