WEEKLY UPDATE - Devil's Slide Complete! (Almost)-UPRR Evanston Sub - HO Scale Model Trains in Action

[@Tilly7731]

You're doing a really great job. Listening to you talk about crawling behind that scene made my knees ache, I've done that a lot on my layout.

[@EvanstonSub]

Not fun, but worth it.

[@bertcresta6685]

The patience Daryl that you have to complete all that scenery! You’ve got my vote for saint of the year!! LOL, all kidding aside, it’s looking really good! You’re almost there! Good work!

[@EvanstonSub]

Sainthood for train modelling is probably going a bit far. LOL Thankfully though, I am a saint through the love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ my Lord.

[@louisletourneau3429]

Great modeling , glad you included à picture of the real devils slide because I would not have believed something like that existed !!!!😅😅😅

[@EvanstonSub]

You're very welcome😁

Always good to hear from you good friend Randy.

[@ronaldjoyce7374]

It looks great, you’ve done an amazing job with this!!! If the trees don’t work out, you can always change the name to “Twin Peaks” LOL

[@EvanstonSub]

Haha

[@davidbrown4823]

Morning Daryl, looks fantastic and your layout only gets better every week, presently watching your Chiefs playing,( 8.38am in Australia Monday morning) 👍🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@AllenCNW441]

Greetings from KC - Chiefs Win!😀

[@EvanstonSub]

Yep 4-0

[@AllenCNW441]

They need to score more points - the scores aren’t good for my B.P.!

[@thomstoddard1041]

Wow! Its looking great! Again, I feel like I'm on I-15 in Weber canyon going train watching.

[@EvanstonSub]

Right on! Thanks!

[@dirtthunder1638]

Looking good!!

[@EvanstonSub]

Thanks!

[@TobiasL1000]

Why you didn’t put one side of the slide in front of the mirror, so the second side would be the reflection in the mirror?

[@EvanstonSub]

Then both rock formations would be identical.

[@bobainsworth5057]

What would it look like if ypu put backdrop accross mirror. Not so it covered the road but just above. Worth a try temporarily.

[@EvanstonSub]

Edges of backdrops are very noticeable. I'll keep it out there however as an option.

[@vitovolpe567]

What about cutting a piece of back drop glue to the mirror to hide the mountain

[@EvanstonSub]

It would hide the interstate reflection.

[@Bnsf7672]

nice job

[@EvanstonSub]

Thanks for the visit

[@briansklarski]

Hard to tell as im not there to see but what if you put an over head highway sign almost at thr mirror for thr far lanes coming away from the mirror? May hid the reflection a bit more?

[@EvanstonSub]

I may still do that. We'll see once I get the trees in place.

[@briansklarski]

Perftthsgs what's I'd do. So where you are after all the scenery is in place. Either way you are doing an amazing job on the dream ​@@EvanstonSub

[@ChrisK-LTC]

One of your containers got broke into. 😀

[@EvanstonSub]

Great catch. If the train's engineer notices it during an ops session, the train must stop for 20 minutes to allow police to the scene. All other trains must be routed around it until the 20 minutes is up.

[@ChrisK-LTC]

@@EvanstonSub Great idea.

[@lawrencelewandowski2142]

Whhy not use backdrop to cover part of mirror then use trees

[@EvanstonSub]
