TT scale trains and models

New update 9/9/2020 - https://espeett.blogspot.com/2020/09/mo ... nd-28.html

LCT for a small car ferry like the cable ferry between Needles and Fauquier is a brilliant idea

I'll stick it in here instead of starting a one-post thread...

In case anyone's interested, I've resurrected my SP in 1:120 blog http://espeett.blogspot.com/, with a new post last night on finally working out a workable plan for modelling Carpinteria. :)

Contact him directly, not via the forum. For some reason emails from board error with his email address.

I did, I replied to him via the email thread we'd been talking through 4 years ago. I've never actually used the forum email feature before.

Is he still doing anything, or even alive? I've still not received a reply to an email I sent two weeks ago, asking about the built/painted-to-order SD45 for which I paid a E250 deposit four years ago... I last heard from him on 19 September 2016, and I want my model...

Mike and I are very happy that the cars have finally arrived. :grin: Have fun with them! Thanks! I'm very happy (and relieved) too, that was quite the gong show! Wow, that CP car is bright! I can see your leanings towards lemon loads now :wink: The three railways of my childhood and youth: the brig...

Apparently, we've achieved something astounding: according to someone in the SP Modelers group on Facebook, there is no R-40-27 in HO scale - but we have one in TT!

Well it was a bit of an ordeal but my cars from Lok & Roll are finally here!

I'm just wondering what condition the lemons on the bottom are in. There's probably 100 cubic feet of lemonade in each of those gons lol.

Probably not great, but they're going for juicing, so...

Tim O'Connor posted this in the SP Prototype Modelers facebook group showing sugar beet gons filled with lemons bound for a juice plant in Anaheim from Yuma, Arizona.

I've always liked those cars... this could be an excuse to model some!
