    When I began my Sn3 layout some years ago I drew a great deal of inspiration from Bill's layout which was featured in the model railroad magzines, and by PBL who produce the Sn3 locos and rolling stock. Only the very best layouts get that kind of treatment and that shows the high regard in the hobby for Bill's work.

    • @grandadjack
      @grandadjack 6 місяців тому

      Yes he is quite well known. He also drew inspiration from the late Paul Scoles Sn3 layout which was also incredible. I saw his layout in Seattle before he passed away and Paul was also an amazing model railway craftsman as well.

    Granddad jokes just go with the territory. 😁 Your buddy, Bull, has a lot of difference from the one my dad had. We had an old (was told 1945, but I don't think that the model was out in '45) John Deere MC, the crawler version of the MT. No safety cage, really, not anything safety. And they were a 2 cylinder petrol engine, not diesel. The farm, I don't think, had a single level spot, moreso than the Shadlands. There's a reason why Hillsdale County, Michigan, in the US, got it's name. I heard that our farm was at almost the highest point in southern Michigan (about a metre across the property line was supposed to be the highest.) Lots of memories using that old beast! Was a 6 foot blade, but generally got the job done. Moved a LOT of dirt and gravel (the area was mostly gravel and yellow sand, beneath the topsoil. Neighbour had a small gravel pit that was occasionally used for surfacing local roads.) Only thing my dad discovered was that it didn't float.😁 Down in a particularly mucky valley, he tried to take it across mud. Turns out that the mud was barely less liquid than open water... Took a lot of effort and our diesel tractor to get it unstuck. Fortunately a pretty wooded lot, with plenty of old growth to help as leverage.😉 Was what my dad used mainly to dig the walk in basement (with the help of a 1955 Ford C500 dump truck my granddad gave us) for the house he built. Shad certainly has a lovely bit of property! And a great dad helping him! Thanks for sharing this!

    My dad would have loved this. Growing up in the Great Depression, he learnt that, if he wanted something that was harder to come by, he'd have to make it himself. I used to regularly visit Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan, in the United States as a kid, and he instilled in me my love of history through things like that. And the required trip on both the steam train and the paddle wheel boat each time. 😁 Thanks ever so much for sharing this!
