WINTER BLUES
I
don’t know about anyone else but I have had it with this winter. I’m not interested in another 4-6” or mixed
precipitation at all. Normally, I welcome a stretch of time at the beginning of the year with few commitments
and a good excuse to stay home and in the basement working quietly away but this year it has gone on too long
and been too cold.
So I was glad to get out of the house and attend our first Modeler’s Day Out. It grew from an idea Kurt Thompson
had after his wife went to a quilter’s weekend. He first proposed it as a weekend activity and perhaps we’ll do that
sometime but the board decided a day would be a good way to start. None of us knew going in what it would be like
but a dozen of us showed up and sat around at tables and worked on various projects and talked. That’s it, nothing
grand, just a bunch of guys sitting around enjoying each other’s company. There’s more on the day elsewhere in the
issue. I had a great time and that is what the Division is for. We’ll do it again and hope more of you show up.
Back when we started the Division, many of us didn’t know each other but over the last few years some of have.
However, when I look at the roster of members I’m struck by how many I don’t know. While a lot of that is my own
fault, I think there are members out there who are missing out on a good time. Let’s face it, for technical information
we have the various magazines, books, web sites, and vidIn This Issue……….
eos. But for company, for someone to give praise for a
great model, to commiserate with us over a failed attempt,
and to help run the trains, we need real people and a good

Modeler’s Day In
By Jeroen Gerritsen
n Saturday, March 22nd, the Chesapeake Division held its first Modeler's
Day In. Suggested to the board by former Superintendent Kurt Thompson,
the concept is simple: bring projects to the same place to work on in company. It may seem odd to do as a group what we normally do by ourselves in
our basements or workshops, but it was also a valuable opportunity to socialize, talk trash, and share projects and techniques.
O
We met from 9AM on at the Church at Covenant Park in Ellicott City. Fourteen members showed up, including two new members who had never been to a Division event before. Members in attendance were (in
no particular order): Kurt Thompson, Arthur Boyd, Russell Forte, David Arday, Tim Beaty, John Haverstock
(new member), Alan DelGaudio, Mike Lesh (new member), Greg Meeks, Jeroen Gerritsen, Gerhard Klose,
Greg Kidwell, Tom Casey, and Dave Pugh.
People’s projects and activities ranged widely, including three members who brought reading material, and
used the time to catch up on their model railroad reading and to select convention activities for the NMRA
National convention in Cleveland in July (it’s time to register!). Several brought rolling stock to tune-up, and
rolling stock kits to assemble. Greg Kidwell and Tom Casey each had freight car assembly lines going.
There were at least two laser-cut craftsman-type structure kits in assembly, and a Keystone log loader.
Three scratch-building projects were underway, including a billboard, a pile trestle, and a roundhouse.
Dave Pugh began assembly of the Rix warehouse for the CCR&D Division switching layout. We ordered
pizza, but the delivery was delayed and confused, in part by the soccer camp also going on in the fields
around the church. By the time lunch arrived, everyone was starving from the morning’s workin’ on the railroad. Board members held the Division’s Spring Board meeting after lunch (including members who
stayed and could tolerate it!).
Before lunch, and also after the Board meeting, Greg Meeks organized and trained 3 attending members
for merit judging of several scratch-built On30 freight cars built by Kurt Thompson. Judging another member’s models requires intense concentration and study of the models, and fair consideration of the work and
its difficulty.
So, what was the value of the Modeler’s Day In? It certainly takes more effort than going to the basement
for an hour or so, but it had the substantial benefit of creating a social context for model construction, normally a solo activity. Many participants were positive about the experience and said they’d do it again. We
got to borrow tools we forgot, or didn’t have. We got to see projects under construction, and most importantly, how others approach difficulties or tedious and repetitive processes in what we do. For example,
I brought home some lessons from Tom Casey’s assembly line for Tichy flat cars. By completing a small
set of tasks on each car in turn, you can be more efficient as well as more precise (except maybe the first
car in line). I think we were all inspired by what we saw.
In the announcement for the Modeler’s Day In, Tom Casey suggested: “Ever wanted to try something new
in your model railroading but didn't quite have all the answers? The modeling article you read that got you
all fired up wasn't quite as complete or detailed as you needed?” I did try something new at the event: using score-and-snap methods to create window and door spaces in a styrene structure. Because I’d arrived
late, I never got beyond scoring and snapping, so I didn’t see how well it worked out (that’s another story).
Next time we do this, perhaps we can take up Tom’s challenge to try something new (individually), or bring
a project that may be stalled or especially challenging, to take advantage of the assembled expertise.

FURTHER COMMENTS/THOUGHTS
on Modelers Day In
By Kurt Thompson
S
ince I wasn't sure how much stuff I would actually get done or want to do, I took a storage carton full of stuff
to Modelers Day In. If the Zombie Apocalypse had occurred while we were there, I'd have had enough stuff
to work on and complete the necessary structures for my Model Builder – Structures certificate.
We started with just 4 tables set up in square. (King Arthur hosting Modelers of the Square Table?) Before the day
was through, we had two tables up for refreshments and pizza, one table up for the CCR&D; another table up for free
trade items (mutual giveaways) and AP judging; and our square table ended up with 6 tables in a rectangle.
The camaraderie was the best part of the day. We were all joking and trading “war stories” about our modeling efforts
(and humorous failures), what worked for us, and what didn't. When I joked about the cost of stick on weights, we all
had stories about kits with price tags from long ago, and sometimes from hobby stores no longer in business.
I had some trepidation about the day, especially since I had brought my cars to be judged for the Model Builder –
Cars AP certificate. The judges were fair and encouraging and all guys I know. And I'm happy to say, four of the cars
earned Merit Awards so I was able to complete my Cars AP paperwork and give it to Greg Meeks to send up the AP
chain of command.
Several people commented that we need to do this again soon. I agree with that thought. Having a day in with my fellow modelers has kept me inspired and willing to try stuff (in front of others).
If you had planned to come but couldn't make it, watch The Relay and the website and emails from Tom Casey, our
Superintendent for the next one. Dates and times are being looked at now. If you have a particular place or date or
time you'd like to see the next MDI, please let someone on the Division BOD know.
Editors Comment: I would like to thank Kurt Thompson for coming up with this splendid idea, and I also would like
to thank Tom Casey and the others who pulled this first MDI off. Unfortunately, my wife and I had to attend a memorial service for a good friend that day and I could not attend, however, looking at the following photos and reading
Tom’s and Kurt’s commentary. I cannot wait for our next MDI event. I hope you feel the same. John

It Doesn’t Look Right!
How To Make A Building That Does Not “Fit In” Fit In!
By Noel Widdifield
H
ave you ever had a building that you purchased for your railroad and once placing it on the railroad deciding it didn’t really look right? I found a Farmer’s Market building in a gift shop several years ago
and knew it would be perfect for my railroad. It reminded me of a similar place in my hometown on
State Road 32 on the way from my house in the country to Anderson, Indiana. It was called “G.M.
Feed”, and it sold garden supplies, plants, feed and in the warmer months vegetables and fruits. That G.M. Feed
Store was painted with pictures of flowers, fruits and vegetables on the
outside very much like the
building in the gift shop. I
bought it, took it home and
placed it on my railroad but
later realized that it looked like
something from a gift shop and
not in a real town. It needed
some work to make it look
“real.
When I finished the scenery on the first section of my railroad I decided that I really needed to do some things to
make that Farmer’s Market look more authentic. The first thing that needed work was the roof. It was just painted
wood and detracted from the authenticity of the building. While looking at pictures on LSOL.com, I noticed a
building that Ron Hill had built with what looked like real shingles for the roof. I contacted Ron who told me
about some dollhouse shingles that he had found and used. Going on line
I found the shingles Ron had used. They were sold under the brand name
of “What’s Next?” and came in a several colors and sizes. I ordered two
rolls each of the ½” scale Black Textured Rectangular and Simulated
Grey Slate. They come in rolls that are about 20 feet in length
Putting the shingles on the
building was fairly easy. I
unrolled the shingles and cut
them to the length of the roof
using my hobby knife. I
made them about 1/32 inch longer than the roof. Applying clear
Acrylic adhesive caulk (White Lightning 3006), I glued the shingle
strips to the backside of the roof, making sure that there was a 1/64”
overhang at each end. The first strip was aligned with a 1/64” overhang along the bottom edge of the roof. After the first line of shingles
was glued in place, I overlapped each next row using the White Lightning 3006 to attach the new row to the last row and to the wooden
roof. The backside of the roof was the place to start because there was no obstruction on that side of the roof. That
allowed me to gain confidence gluing the shingles in place. I was careful to be sure that the rows were aligned
evenly as I glued them in place. (See Farmers 5, 6,&7 on following Page)

The front side of the roof required cutting the shingle strips to fit around the
dormer in the center of the roof. Again, I
started at the bottom edge of the roof and
measured each strip before I cut it to be
sure it would fit snugly against the dormer. [Farmers8., Farmers9]

Fitting the shingle strips along the dormer was a little harder to do than the rest
of the roof because of the smaller size and
the sharper angles. Again, each strip was
measured and cut to fit in place. I trimmed
the shingles to fit along the edge where the
dormer fit against the rest of the roof. I
then trimmed the edge of each row of shingles so that they overhung the end of the
roof by the 1/32” overhang. [Farmers10.
[Farmers11.]
11
I used the Black Textured shingles to cap the ridge of the roof. I first cut a strip to the length of the long ridge and glued
it along one side of the roof. I let it dry for a couple of hours and then glued down the other side. Then I cut a strip to fit
on the dormer and glued it down in two steps as I had on the long ridge. [Farmers12., Farmers13. , Farmers14. ,

Finished with the roofing, I moved on to the windows. There were open holes that didn’t look very realistic, so I
removed the base that was attached to the bottom of the
Farmers’ Market. That allowed me to work inside the
building. I cut clear styrene to
fit and glued it in place inside
each window. I removed the
excess glue from the window
using my hobby knife.

Since the G.M Feed owner used the upper story of the building as a residence, I felt the windows upstairs needed curtains. I cut
curtains from hanging file
folders and put detail on them
with a black marker. I then
glued them in place at the upstairs windows. A lettered a
sign for one of the downstairs
windows advertising peaches
and tomatoes that would have been in season in September finished the
window features. September 1954 is the time period for my railroad. [

Because there were no doors on the building, my next project was to construct
them. I cut basswood strips to the size needed to fit in the doorway. I glued
them together to construct the
frame of the door and then glued
clear styrene cut to size to the back
of the doors. I mixed some acrylic
paint to match the trim on the
building and painted the doors.
[Farmers25]
25

I glued the doors in place in the
doorway and then turned my
attention to the canopy on the
building. The canopy was fastened to the building using a
brass hinge, but there were no supports to hold the canopy in the raised position. I fashioned two support arms from styrene strips, painted them and glued
them in place between the front
wall of the building and the canopy. I also glued a small triangular
piece of siding in place over the
opening in the dormer and painted it grey so that it appeared to be a vent
for the attic.
26
To make the building look as if it had been in use for a decade, I felt that it
should be weathered. I applied
weathering powders using a
soft brush that I have on hand
for weathering. The results
looked were what I had in mind
when the job was complete. [Farmers26, Farmers27, Farmers28]
27
This project is an example of kitbashing buildings that are was sold for a
purpose other than for a Large Scale railroad. By using my Scale Ruler
that I always carry in my billfold, I was able to determine that the building
was about the right scale for my railroad. Once I put it in place and looking at it for a while, I realized that it didn’t look realistic enough. Thinking about how to improve it, I came up with
some minor modifications that would make it look much more inhabited and realistic. I wanted to keep the basic look

of the uniquely painted outside walls, door, trim and the
overall colors. The project took me about three hours of
modeling fun over a couple of days to complete the satisfying result. As you can see, it fits in very well and looks
much better after the improvements I made. This kind of
project is perfect for the winter months ahead while the
weather prevents us from being outside. Perhaps if you
look around your railroad you will find a similar project to
keep you encouraged about staying inside for a few hours,
give yourself a lift and improve your modeling skills.

The Childish Game of “I Spy”
By Kurt Thompson
T
here is a child's game called “I Spy.” In the game, the leader starts out by saying, “I
spy,” and then begins to name something within his or her visual range. The next
player then name something else. Usually the trick is to spy and call something that begins with
the same letter as the object the leader called out.
But here, as model railroaders, we need to look very closely at pictures of the prototype, whether we took them or they
are in some publication. As we look a little more critically at the photos, we will see things that we missed the first time,
or second, or third, we looked at the image.
Below is a picture I took while in Raleigh, NC back in the Fall of 2009. (Katie, my daughter, attended NCSU in Raleigh,
so I got to railfan down there some.) In this picture, I am at a street level crossing on the original Norfolk Southern Railway, looking southeast away from Raleigh.
On this crossing scene, I spy: worn ties in various stages of decay and wear, ballast that is not uniform in color, the overhead crossing lights protected by a small semi-circle of guard rail material. The overhead crossing arm is based in a haphazardly poured concrete footing. On the right side, I spy: a single arm gate, and a relay box and a vent pipe. In the near
field of vision, the road is not a uniform color of asphalt but a patchwork. Even the slope up to the crossing itself shows
signs that it has been built up over time. If you look at the road/rail intersection, you'll see that the outside of the rail is
protected by wood while the inside of the rail has a gap deep enough for the flanges of the railcars to ride.
Don't forget looking at the background either. This view shows trees approaching the rails on both sides. The sky was
overcast and therefore more whitish than blue, such as the early Fall in North Carolina.
Take a close look at the picture and see what else you can find in this month's issue of “Model Railroaders' Spy.”

On30 TRACTION
by Martin K. Van Horn
I
n my previous article for THE RELAY, I made mention of working in On30 Traction as well as On30
steam road modeling. I have long been interested in traction, recognizing from my first streetcar ride in the
1940's that this was railroading. Those are flanged wheels guiding the car along rails in the street! In April,
1955 I joined the Baltimore Society of Model Engineers as a 16-year-old Junior Member and was immediately put to work by the late Clyde Gerald, building the HO trolley suburban line running half the length of the 75'
layout. It was to be finished in time for the N.M.R.A. National Convention at the end of August. At the same time,
I was also attracted to O gauge traction just around the partition from the HO layout.
In O gauge traction, standard gauge 1-1/4" has been used for prototypes that operated gauges of 4' 8-1/2" to 5' 41/2". There were narrow gauge traction systems, 3'6" gauge, in Denver, Los Angeles and Portland, Oregon. There
were 3' gauge interurban cars operating on the Pacific Coast Ry. in California and on the Burlington in the Black
Hills. As O standard gauge can stand in for a myriad of broad gauges, On30 can stand in for prototype narrow
gauge traction. There was 30" narrow gauge traction in Latin America, notably in Maracaibo in Venezuela.
Narrow open cars on narrow 30" gauge tracks! But car
width is not necessarily analogous to gauge, Baltimore
Transit Co. Operated 8'4" wide P.C.C. cars on 64-1/2"
broad gauge track, while Los Angeles Transit Lines ran 9'
wide P.C.C’s on 42" narrow gauge.
But some cars were narrowed down. Bachmann’s commercially available single truck car is selectively compressed from an 8'3" wide 1898 eight-window-sided single
truck car, no. 1050, at Baltimore Streetcar Museum. (That’s
your’s truly motoring the1050 in 1973.)
Bachmann did a pretty good job, ending up with a model
close to a Denver Tramways single truck car of the same
era. Bachmann’s scales 23' long vs. 23'6" for Denver,
and both, 7' wide.
13
Spring 2014
Steam Era Models in Australia will make it’s HO “Black
Beetle” underfloor trucks to order re: wheel diameter and
wheelbase. I used them ordered to match the dimensions of
the dummy trucks on Corgi’s 1:50 P.C.C. car to convert
these to On30. Of course I used the two Corgi’s painted for
the Los Angeles narrow gaugers!
The “Fruit Salad” car at right is in the 1948 paint scheme
as delivered to Los Angeles Transit Lines while the “Mint
Green” car at left is in the scheme of successor Los Angeles Metropolitan Transit Authority. I had electrified the
upper oval of a two-level 2' x 3' mini-layout display built
by Garry Cerrone after I purchased it form him in 2005. I used it later that year to introduce On30 Traction to modelers
from Florida to New England and west to Ohio at a Mini-Meet held in Fallston, MD. One end of the layout had a curve
nearing 6" radius, but the P.C.C.’s would take it! A boxcab loco made from a Boulder Valley Models resin conversion
kit for a boxcab diesel conversion of Bachmann’s HO G.E. 44-tonner is on the 6+” curve, followed by the P.C.C.! But
for the best operation, N.M.R.A. Recommended Practices for O gauge traction apply to On30 so far as trolley wire
height (4.5" to 5.5"), and minimum radius street corner curves (9").
Otherwise one is building an HO trolley line with room to get one’s
hands in under the trolley wire!
Another Boulder Valley Models resin On30 conversion kit for the Bachmann G.E. 44-tonner is
further converted to an electric steeple cab, here
pulling a string of Grandt Line 4-wheel ore cars and a Chivers Fine Lines 14' caboose. On the lower level, a Bachmann
Davenport gas-mechanical loco pulls a 14' Chivers Fine Lines kit boxcar, a scracthbuilt 16' hi-side gondola and another
Chivers caboose. The caboose was converted from a double-truck 8-wheeler to a single truck bobber using an HO Pullman truck with the middle axle and journals removed.
14
Spring 2014
Bachmann’s made-for-On30 single-truck, double-end streetcar lends itself to further bashing, here as a combine. The
Norway & Paris Street Railway in Maine hade single-truck
interurban combines such as this, although based on a 2window longer bodied car.
Another conversion or “bash” uses a train Troll laser-cut wood
kit for “portable vestibules” to put windshields on this car.
The United Railways & Electric Co. of Baltimore added these
portable vestibules to their cars in the early 1900's to give the
crewmen some modicum of protection from the winter cold.
They were “portable” in that they could be removed in the summer. But that meant a laborious job and the need to
store them for the season, so once installed, they probably stayed in place year round. The motorman could open the
center window for cool summer breezes, and they were appreciated when it rained, to say nothing of encountering
insects while in motion! The pilots on these cars were purchased as resin cast parts from Boulder Valley Models in
Baltimore city.

Finding A Scale Lumber Supply (Cheap!)
By Kurt Thompson
O
pposite most people will simply see a box of coffee stirrers. A rather large box of
1000 to be precise. (And no, I didn't count them all, I'm going on a little faith here.)
The box proudly proclaims they are 5.5 inches in length. With my trusty metal scale
ruler, I measured one of these stirrers out of
curiosity. The good news is: in HO, they scale out at 4” by 12” (closer to
13” but who cares) and 38' long. In O scale, they are closer to 2” by 6” and
19' in length. With these relatively standard sizes of lumber, the real kicker
to the puzzle is I bought the entire box for $3.00 from Office Depot. For
those keeping the box score, a single box would net 38,000 board feet of
lumber in HO and 19,000 board feet in O scale. Instead of buying scale lumber from Northeastern or Kappler at significantly higher prices for significantly less lumber, I'll work my way through this box first.
