They aren't the best pictures I took (no where near, just in a quick hurry since a few wanted to see "model Trains"Total time 10mins

....I know, the censor needs cleaned, the pictures are crooked, etc etc, etc.

Pretty kool. I don't know a whole lot about trains, but the guy that helped me build the koi pond in my backyard is really into it and he has some pretty neat stuff too. I'ts krazy how realisitc people can make those things.

...and on a side note... I think you have some crazy sensor dust as well!!

[edit] Lol didn't see the dust comment...

It's only craxy to commit suicide...Being detailed, and having fun in a hobby isn't crazy, afterall we don't see too many photographers in a ment institute after trying to confess their wives that the 600MM F.4 IS Is what they need

j/k

Lol agreed

By krazy I didn't mean anything bad, but rather amazing that they can have such attention to detail. ( please bear with me I've been doing math online for about 3 hours now

)

If you posted only the third shot,. we might not have known it was a model! (well other than the windscreen being as bright as the headlamps but you could burn them)

It's only the windowblinds and walls in the others that give it away.

Very cool effect and lighting.

PhotosGuy · 22nd of November 2005 (Tue)

You should have fun taking pics of that!

ACDCROCKS · 22nd of November 2005 (Tue)

I wish I could put video on here to show you guys what it sounds like, air compressors sounds, dispactchers, etc...I need to load it to the DCS remote....that way I can turn off the marker lights, ditch lights, etc

I would have, you don't notice the third rail in the middle ?

O Scale I suppose?

Nice shots, and yes, yes you do need to clean off that sensor

ACDCROCKS · 22nd of November 2005 (Tue)

it's O scale, I wish it was 2 rail though, but...too much invested into 3 rail now.

I have a little "O" gauge boxed up in the basement - cool Lionel stuff!

It's amazing how the models can be so realistic. I've never gone anywhere near that level, but that's a really nice setup.

Oh, clean that sensor

ACDCROCKS · 22nd of November 2005 (Tue)

In the basement

Bring that stuff up!! It's almost christmas!

, Plus the moisture will ruin it. Do you have the original boxes with that?

My basement is climate-controlled, and very dry. I have the original box for my Dad's very old Lionel set with metal couplers, but not for most of my own stuff collected over the years.

Might bring it up - still deciding.

I have some O Scale stuff myself, fun stuff. Very fun
