Maintenance of Way snow plow

This is Origninally a Micro trains line caboose.


I cut away the front. fasioned a snow plow out of a square brass sheat, cardboard and sparcle.


I also raised the cupola so the driver could se over the plow...


I weathered it slightly with pastels/powder.





NOTE: I have manipulated the pic`s slighty with photoshop.

Upgrade on the suitecase.

I have added new trees, and a water tower and some cows. I still need to add more trees.

I have experienced with a mirror on theese pictures.

Manual turnout system.

I have always hated the look of Märklin turnouts, so i figured out a way to controll them manually for under the price of 1 electric turnout from M!

Unfortently the program i use to add things to this blog, is so poor that i cannot write instructions and place the pictures where i want them to be, so i hope you understand the way to do it with the pictures.

If you got any questions, do not hasitate to post a comment.!

This is what i have done...

Take a look at this inctruction:

Pennsy GG-1

This is a test sample of a z car with fiber optic light`s. (note: the windows is missing on this model.) This pic shows my M.U coupled f7`s. And the el 17 under progres. You can see that i also added a quite impressive background.
I am also planning to have a bridge over the rails, this is just a test posision. The bridge is kit-bashed from an old H0 model form Heljan.
