Re: Capital road
 

The cat is side loaded on the flat bed ;) ;)
You may get in trouble for the load being to wide :lol: :lol: :lol:

Re: Capital road
 

This is cool, plus the G scale?

Re: Capital road
 

Yeah, me being an experienced livestock hauler, (lol) that side loaded is going to be pretty unstable, especially if you have any narrow roads to travel, but knowing the freight is pretty flexible whenever I approach an area that I'm not sure the load will fit , I just close my eyes and punch it!! Lol!!!

Nice big area you have, looks good!

Re: Capital road
 

Nice setup you have. The Mack is looking really good :)

Re: Capital road
 

Kapt Jack 7/8 scale RR but using G scale track . The nice thing is 1/14 scale trucks are close to 1/13.7 trains close enough for me
Thanks for the nice comments guys . Mike

Re: Capital road
 

That will be a nice set up when you get it finished.....

Re: Capital road
 

Yesterday's work on my road . It's a lane and a half wide mike http://i1374.photobucket.com/albums/...ps4vnmngpi.jpg

Re: Capital road
 

That's looking great Mike. The battle for "best in eastern Canada" heats up....

Re: Capital road
 

better look out reg, trucks and trains very cool

Re: Capital road
 

I have to agree Reg. I've been impressed by mikes yard since the first video I saw of his trains. Major competition for sure! :)
I might have to quit my day job and focus my attention on the park:rolleyes::cop:

It's the best part of our hobby. all these rc parks on the forum and yet each and everyone of them is different. A great example of how there's no limits to what we can do and build with our RC's. :)

Re: Capital road
 

I have boats, does that help level the playing field?lol

Mike has a sweet setup for sure. We're all looking forward to see more progress later today....

Re: Capital road
 

dreams do come true! I'll have to look for some you tube videos from you.

Re: Capital road
 

depends you got water for the boats?? LOL :lol:

Re: Capital road
 

Mikes, how about putting a link to one of your you tube videos so I can find your channel?

Re: Capital road
 

I'm a fisherman, of course I have water!:rolleyes:;)

Re: Capital road
 

show off LOL, i guess as a trucker i should have a peterbilt in
my back yard then!!

Re: Capital road
 

Haha, not showing off at all but you did ask...

Yes you should definitely have a Peterbilt but I think it should be in the garage not the backyard. We got a little over excited with our yard and now it's just a lot of work. That's what happens when you have an excavator and too much spare time.

OK, back to Mikes park!:bounce::bounce:

Re: Capital road
 

You tube channel? Link? I'm barely able to figure this photo bucket thing out and only got this far with help from Mario . We had a pond it's gone . I have a friend who has a Peterbilt in his garage 1984 never winter driven . For you southerners that is important as they like to dump salt on the roads here by the kiloton .

Re: Capital road
 

Mikem-your work site is looking better everyday. Why don't you put this thread in the construction sites? You clearly have a lot of work into this. I can tell you from experience that an outdoor site is a lot of work. For several years I had a offroad R/C car & truck track in a vacant lot we had behind our house and I would spend 6-8 hours getting it prepared for a race and then it would rain and everything started over again. That was very frustrating but I loved every minute of it and wouldn't change a thing. Your doing a great job!!

This piece of road was a little more challenging removal of half a stump and 8 feet of lily of the valley with a wicked root system . http://i1374.photobucket.com/albums/...psyt4perko.jpg

Re: Capital road
 

On Monday the railroad got a delivery of a new rebuilt railway car , by truck on the new road .oh by the way I would post more pics but photobucket freezes up every time I do one photo it's driving me nuts any ideas? Mike http://i1374.photobucket.com/albums/...psgrypw9a9.jpg

Re: Capital road
 

Maybe your pictures are too big. I think there used to be a rule on hear that pictures had to be a maximum of 600 X 400. But now that seems to have gone away. On P.b. you can set the size for your pictures. Once you set it they will always be that size. Your lay-out is looking good!!

Re: Capital road
 

Mine does the same thing when I use my Ipad to post pictures, I just shut down PB and reopen it everytime I link a new picture. I don't have that problem when I use the computer, haven't figured out the reason yet :confused:. Your layout is looking good, keep the pictures coming!

Re: Capital road
 

no cross bucks at a curved grade crossing
that peterbilt is sharpe!!

Re: Capital road
 

Big Ford thecrossbucks are coming . Truckmaker and Modelman I sent the problem to Pbucket and they said to use my iPhone to post pics ,I don't have an iPhone . And that Apple isn't updating the iPad for P bucket . That was from Robert the PB robot . So one at a time and freezer problems . Mike

Re: Capital road

job on both, well done

Unloading the new railway car http://i1374.photobucket.com/albums/...psc0lc6wcg.jpg

Re: Capital road
 

That's a slick way of unloading the new car. And it's a good thing the Mack could scoot over into the wide spot, nice setup

Re: Capital road
 

This weekend I finished the missing link and turned around we had a pic of tracks and trains http://i1374.photobucket.com/albums/...psm8w32wij.jpg

Is that an Abrams, lurking in the bushes?
