Here's our brass R1D that is being pro painted. The tenders on the R1D's were centipede




And here is a photo of 4113 serving as a boiler before she was scrapped.

All I had to do to make them bigger, (I use netscape), is to Rt click on the image and a menu box comes up and then Lt click on view image.

Its just a problem with the default configuration of the forum..looks like it was "factory set" to resize photos to 250 pixels wide, which is much smaller than necessary..

I posted some thoughts about it on the "welcome" forum..
you can read more details about the topic here if you like:

http://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/board/index.php/topic,3.15.html

Hopefully the Bach-man or the board webmaster can re-set that default to 640 pixels wide..250 is just too small, and 640 pixels wide fits in messages nicely, and are big enough to show detail, but not TOO big.
640 is basically the "internet forum standard" for discussion forums everywhere.  some are even larger. somewhere between 640 to 800 pixels is reasonable.

Let's See Some Of Your Work

ok! since we have a new forum, here are a few of my Bachmann projects of late:

Here is a modified Large Scale Big Hauler:



A Large Scale "Mining Mogul" converted into a 29n2 scale Forney:


Two Bachmann On30 coaches converted into One On2 Coach:


And my most ambitious project, which has been in progress for several years and is not even close to being finished!  Cheesy
Taking two Large Scale Big Haulers, and converting them into One 2-4-4-2 mallet..(originally they were going to be a 2-6-6-2, but that changed recently)
Here are the two locos in their original state:


and here are what they look like right now!  Grin


im getting there...

Scot

(more details on all these projects are on my webpage..link to my webpage is the little icon under my LV-diamond avatar.


Edit - the 250 pixel forum resize for photos is gone as of Sunday afternoon, Feb 4.
I edited my above pics to remove the limit and show them full-size.
