Yes, it’s a model - 2
3: It’s backwoods railroading with the Spruce Coal
and Timber RR. The only action going on at the
moment is to watch the kudzu grow on the well
weathered structures.
Joey Ricard scratch built the structures using low-budget craft
sticks, household materials, clapboard siding and a few commercial
castings. The vines represent Kudzu which he created from furnace
filter, black paint, ground foam and hairspray.
The backdrop is a photograph mounted on 1/8” Masonite that can
be mounted as needed to the fascia of the On30 modular layout.
