When you think you have it presentable I would like to try it out. I need to move the numbers on the RWA flatbed (and other models).

Well, progress of a sort is being made; lots of pulling of hair with things being unreasonable too though :p

I would love to have a Burlington (C&S - FW&D) passenger set with an E7 and a DRGW passenger set for some Castle Rock activities. We already have a great MoPac set and the GTrax ATSF set (along with 3DTrains Funits). In the early 60's the Castle Rock (DRGW Joint Line) saw daily trains from the DRGW/ATSF/C&S (CB&Q) plus a MoPac run through with DRGW motive power.

K, I have the photos for the F3-1 single stripe, and the F7 4 stripe in D&RGW, these on my list next. Find me some E7 shots and I'll do those too.

I already did the Black/Gold FT set for the D&RGW. and added an ATSF Warbonnet E7 to the library as well. No Q stuff, do you have any good actual photos?

I've finished the SP&S train 1 set, save a bit of text work, and it will be added tonight.

If you have an internet link to a picture, click the Img button above, then copy the url and paste it between the tags.

I believe you have my e-mail. You may send them to me directly if you wish.

Or you could click on the link that says 'Upload Attachment' when you're making a post.

One thing I neglected to mention in my previous post, in order to attach an image to a post, you would need to convert it from png to jpg. I've disallowed png images from being attached in a post because of the size of the png format, as seen in the screenshot below.

screenshot.jpg


This is not necessary if you use Photobucket or some other image hosting site, however - if you do use a png uploaded to an image hosting site, the file size will affect the loading of the image in that for slow Internet connections, the page in the forum will load slower.
Add to that the fact that some image hosting sites are slow to connect to begin with, it just adds to the time it takes an image to load in the forum.
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
