Train trial run!

We tried my little train for the first time on my layout and it seemed to work great! Cool huh? Check it out for yourself!

Telephone poles....

With some tiny wood dowells and some black thread I was able to make some fairly realistic telephone poles. Still a few details that need to be added to them, but so far, they are off to a good start.

Adding the Mountain Climbers.

So, now it's time to add some suicidal dudes scaling the cliff face. I used a special kind of thread, that has multiple threads together that closely resembled ropes. And with a little glue there they are, larger than life. Yet really small. :)

Cars and signs....

I made a fence out of some wedding tule and some nails. Then I cut the tops of the nails off. Doesn't look bad, for starters. I may come up with another more effective method later on, but for the time being it looks cool. Also, some cars and a few road signs. The road signs are printed really small on photo paper. The posts are just tooth picks cut to size.
