Show your models!

I'll have to try looking for the thread/possibly make a new one if it's gone. And oddly enough, it is. I never meant for it to be based on the model, but the color scheme somehow found its way to being based off of it.
 
Two of my favorites:

One for the narrowgaugers. Sorry about my poor camera skills, at least it hides some of the inaccuracies. I'll get some more model shots up later, including a working layout (WIP, though) and some US N Scale stuff including a GG1!
EDIT: Here's the GG1, with a P42 thrown in too. Again, I'm having picture quality issues. Both are static models, though when/if I get an N gauge layout they will be motorised. Note the Biplanes on the shelf behind, there's more to life than just trains!

nathanmallard, I like that shay. Was it a kit or did you build it yourself?
I picked it up cheap in a charity shop! Somewhat anti climatic, I know...
Anyway, it is a static model by a company called "Atlas Editions" and is TT scale. However, it is so close to HOn30 I doubt anyone would notice. Motorization looks difficult but is not impossible, the drivetrain and cylinders are fixed in place though so it would take some serious modelling skills.
 
I recently went to a market and picked up these goodies for $35!

The Hornby O-Gauge items are from 1937, the level crossing is from 1952 and the outside train was made by Jouef of France for Playcraft in 1965.

The box of matches was included in the photograph because it might contain some value within itself. It came in the lot because it contains the clips for the Hornby track.

I can provide more details about specific items upon request. To detail them all would take a very long post.

Would anybody think that it would be cool for me to repaint a N Scale Kato JNR EF-57 electric into a MILW EP-3? The EF-57 is the closest to the EP-3 production model out there.... Because I could totally see this crawling up the bitterroots.
