The CP Geep is out of her summer hibernation... posing with 3 3D printed flat (and printed load) on the Forest side of the 2 sided layout. Still a bit unsure if I should continue on the Barge layout as it is or revamp it.. I like small layouts and short trains but enjoy watching longer trains running as well.... Oh well... winter is long BR Boris .

Hi fellow Zetties. Fall came around and with it time to dig out some dormant projects. My CP Geep now has a playmate in the form of an SW1200 (3D Brass printed frame, body on a Rokuhan drive). There is evidence that the CP ran such consists.. so here we go.. The SW runs really well thanks to its weight.. and slow speed ops is fine with the Geep. Time to build that Barge layout...... (see other post) BR Boris

What is interresting is that CP actually operated a barge service to serve a remote branch in British Columbia, until the eighties... Infortunately I'm unable to find any data on it else than a few pics with no explanation. Dom

Now if you google that you can guess where I got inspiration for it ( even the road # on my Geep is no cooincidence☺️)
