I own the CNW AC4400CW from Athearn, but the coal cars are owned by the club president.

(Referenced from the movie) This is my favorite work of mine so far, I am fairly new to digital art so I am excited to see my growth

I know almost nothing about these, and I was curious if I could find any information on it. There is no label anywhere, not engraved and not inside the body. There is lots of wear on the wood where the hand and shoulder go. The peg heads feel fairly smooth, but almost look like bone (there are fine lines on it). Overall I am lost as to how old it really is, is there a way to tell with what I have?

Was very tricky (I gave up on the tracks) but I am more used to 1/35 scale so I probably just suck at smaller sizes lol

I have a 4ft x 7ft or 1219mm x 2134mm japanese passenger style layout that I have worked on for a few months now, and I am just looking for advice on any last changes to make to the track before I start working on scenery and structures. My plan is to have the front half be suburban/urban and the back half be rural.

One area that has me stuck is what to do with the front straight with the double crossover and crossing. Should I leave it as is or am I missing some potential in this open area?

Any help/advice is appreciated!

Still hopeless at the game but I am indeed "just playing more" to get better
