It’s a busy day at Collins Yard as the rerouted Sacramento Daylight clears the way for the rerouted Blue Comet somewhere east of Fresno. Meanwhile, Bizzie is switching the local Roma winery outpost for the Miscreant Valley Produce co-op. #hotrains #modeltrains

Clearly a bridge too far on the Miscreant Valley Railroad as SP No. 20, “Bizzie”, hovers above the eventual Taupin Creek. Close to laying the golden spike on the MVRy mainline, just have to… construct a bridge now. #hotrains #modeltrains

We can put tracks on Lombard Street, Muni doesn't want you to know this but you can totally put tracks down the Crookedest Street in the World.

No matter what you model, whether mainline or branchline, superelevate your curves! It’s so worth it! #modeltrains #hotrains

My little 4.75" gauge box motor (named "Inky), was so happy to come out again after the LALS spring meet that she ran over her own people-catcher. Photo taken at the Southern California Live Steamers in Torrance, CA, by my friend Alex O'Donnell, on 8/8/26. #livesteam #minaturetrains

It's a faaaaaaaaake X3 I can't afford a real one so I spent 1/10th the price on this. Still sounds the same as a real one.

Happy #SharkWeek2026, everyone! Instead of individual sketches this week, I worked on one big pic to have finished before July ended. This was my most complex drawing yet, at one point having *40 layers* to it! Hope you all enjoy! Characters credited in the alt text! #sharkfurs #furryart #myart

And now it's all done and colored! Rizz is a big ska fan so she feels more open skanking in a moshpit. Razz, on the other hand, will vibe just about anywhere. #sharkfurs #thirdwaveska #myart #furryart

June 7 to July 16, 2026: Railings have been installed on the tanks and cab sides and new copper rivets on the side of Electra’s tanks. I really need to get back to art…

An update on Project Electra: it has been a riveting experience this week. However, it’s so satisfying to put greeblies on your models. Also, plenty of stairs too.

As I'm continuing on my little Electra project, I've made up this general arrangement drawing to both get myself back into art and get my ideas out in a visual medium so I can stop talking in circles. Hope you all enjoy it! I'll be happy to entertain questions. #livesteam #PacificElectric #myart

Got bored today and decided to spend the morning painting my Suydam brass "Electra" model into a facsimile of how my 7.5" gauge one is going to look. The lettering is subject to change on the big one as I have more room to work with the kerning. That said, I like how this looks! #modeltrains

Update! With the completion of the hoods, phase one of Project Electra is complete! She’ll be living in my bedroom while I pivot to art projects I need to have done, but I’m very glad to have gotten to this point!

Update: She now has a cab! I also began fabricating the hood. Once I refabricate the hoods tomorrow using my adhoc brake press, I can pause the project for now and work on art comms again.

Working hard on Project Electra the last couple days, had to reengineer the frame and then start building the superstructure. Look at her! I’m so proud!

Field research for the Electra project brought me out to the real thing at Traveltown. I went at her with a tape measure and a dream. Eventually I have to convert all of these into 1/8 scale but now I can build her superstructure. Stuff like the curved roof just needs some finessing. #trainart

Motorman Reymond @beatlewolf.bsky.social · 31/05/2026

After some additional research, I've improved Electra's maroon scheme into something more plausible for the period, but also more tasteful. While it sucks having to get rid of the fancy filigree, I know for certain a locomotive like this will stand out massively.

Motorman Reymond @beatlewolf.bsky.social · 31/05/2026

I also have evidence that there was one PE steeplecab with painted lining applied, but it was most likely short lived.

Currently, it's Pacific Electric 1544, as you know from having talked to me Wednesday night. But seriously, my esoteric hyperfocus tends to be etymology. I feel like if I can understand where a word comes from, it can help translation between languages.

Alright folks, I need your input. What paint scheme looks good on this locomotive? #trainart #myart #PacificElectric
