vintagercr Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 What a wild ride this is going to be John
gascansam Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 Another classic, John.....saw the Chattanooga Choo Choo race here before the fire....really cool and really sad. I haven't done my General model yet, but want to do it like the ravaged picture shown.....members of the Andrews Raiders are buried here surrounding a monument of the train at the National Cemetary....fascinating slice of history....great work as always on your bench.
GoatGuy Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 I love the Teresi twist. Looks great so far John. Can't wait for more. If you need any graphics done, let me know.
