Finally posted some photos of the project I have been working on for about six weeks. I plan on taking this to shows and also running my tin plate trains on it at home. If I knew how to put the pictures here I would, but I don't know how to do that. You will have to go to the photo album.

Well done dude!

That is pretty cool! It looks great and is still compact. How big is it, 4 x 6?

It is 4X5 1/2. It fits in my Blaizer.I wanted it to look like an old display.I used old Lionel Grass and I had the green and cream paint mixed.I build a D-27 display which is the Disapearing layout about 2 years ago.
I started buying Tinplate in March of 2007.I used to hate it now I really like it.I only buy the Lionel classics or the MTH repros.I want everything to look New.
I still am very active with the Pittsbirgh Indenpendent Hi-Railers.Also Like the Lionel PWC stuff.
But the Tinplate bug has got me.

Very nice work! I predict that this will be a big hit at any show where you display it.

A very nice display and layout. Color me jealous.

A really great layout and display. It will be a hit at any train show.

What did you use for color samples to have the paint mixed?

A friend of mine has a D223 and a D224 dealer layouts.I looked at them got the color samples and held them to the colors on the layout.The are very close.

I just picked up a MTH 381 and a MTH 392 to add to my display.
