These are pics of some of the lighting work. This includes two signal bridges I had custom made by Don Silberbauer, at Model Memories. He's a great guy, and his work is a treasure to the hobby. I also used tiny LEDs to add lighting to a MOW and construction site dioramas, as well as to the two intermodal cranes.

...bench work to prep the crossing gates.



Working on some of the wiring scenatics for the various projects, I realized several use cases for the Apple iPad and Apple pencil.



Sorry for the distorsion in the pics, but here is an example of the PRR lattice style signal bridge, again, Don's work.




Gradually sorting out what's looking definitly like it'll be a construction site.





A couple shots of the lattice style signal bridge common in the NE corridor. The late model Land Rover, Audi, and Mercedes wagon that a couple workers at the intermodel year drive are totally asynchronous to the period I'm modeling'..., but it's MY layout, and the intermodel yard staff work hard!






In addition to the 2006 Benz, the Coke machine outside the field office did a bit of time travelling. Maybe I'll find a more vintage one at some point.




Night MOW operations... This shot takes me back to my brother and me, hanging out at the rail yard, looking through chain link fences at the goings on of the then, mighty Pennsylvania Railroad.
