The urban fire scene depicted at right is a good example of how Charlie brings the effects of animation into his modeling. Note the extended ladder on the firetruck and the smoke billowing from the burning building.

The structures at right are borrowed from HO and look just right when used in the background on Charlie's layout.

One of the most interesting facets of model railroading for me is to see work in progress. These two photos show how Charlie is extending his layout to branchlines. The extension show here is L shaped with the rail line in the photo at left leading into a 90 degree curve to the area shown in the photo at right. Note the turntable under construction at the far end in the photo at right and the two team tracks in the center of the photo at left.
