I’ve finished adding trees to St. Williams – and what a difference they make to the scene! Compare the two photos below.
Before…
After…
More on the new trees in a future post, but it’s a busy day today. In addition to all the usual things, I’m preparing for a special visitor tomorrow. He’s a friend from out of town – and he’s riding The Canadian to get here!
Wow! I guess Ontario isn’t Limon Colorado after all.
Trevor,
Incredible difference.
One thought, try the same shot one more time, with the headlight out. They seldom had them on in the fifties. It just might make it look even more prototypical than it already does.
GREAT JOB!

The trees frame the railway beautifully.
Great job!

Great scene Trevor.
Hi Trevor, Wow! The scene really becomes believable with the trees and other details. Great job and very good photo angle. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Gord
Wow, that is a huge difference. The “after” shot is one of my favourites of the layout! Something so comforting about being surrounded by trees like that.
Trevor, wow what a change the scene looks great

Just absolutely wonderful.
You must be very happy.
I would be!
Dave,
Out here in the west, we like to comment that there are no trees to spoil the view.
The trees make a huge difference. They really set off the scene and frame the trains as they run through it.
