Marias Pass - In Action!
I created a very short video tonight of my Marias Pass layout. Here is a view from the end, looking over the Flathead River and towards the snowshed. A string of boxcars is pulled by a pair of warbonnets. My music selection on my PC right now is limited, but it's better than silence. The resolution isn't great, but it's a start. I hope to have better video in the future to share. Enjoy!

Gotta love those patch units!
I am working on some more patch units, and completed UP #9651, a former SP dash 9. Although the prototype has since been repainted into UP colors, my N scale version will continue to wear the worn out grey and red. The rust on the long hood turned out quite well simply using cheap artist acrylics and a micro brush. Everything else was a combination of airbrushing and drybrushing.
