My wife just got back from a 2 month driving-journey from New Mexico to Alaska and back. She was kind to acknowledge my passion for modeling trains as she took a few photos of some trains she saw in Alaska. One of which was the White Pass and Yukon Railway. Here's a link to the official WPYR site: http://www.trainweb.com/railfan/ Here's a link to my BrickShelf gallery for my models of the WPYR set: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=21782 But, if this link doesn't work, maybe these will: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=211717 http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=211718 http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=211719 http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jamathis/Trains/Passenger/WhitePassAndYukon/p1_alaskan_v1.gif http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jamathis/Trains/Passenger/WhitePassAndYukon/v1/p2_alaskan_v1.gif http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jamathis/Trains/Passenger/WhitePassAndYukon/v1/p3_alaskan_v1.gif The passenger cars are supposed to be olive-green solid (no yellow striping) and have dark red/rust colored roof. I got distracted from the prototypical wagon color scheme by trying a snot striping like Ben B. uses in some of his building structure walls. This attempt at some of the WPYR models is still quite early. I hope to refine the models and add some other rolling and power stock sometime. Thanks for looking. later, James Mathis

(...) Another great looking train James. I would love to see how the coaches are constructed. Like how the sides are connected to windows. Also I wasnt able to find any pictures of the real train on the site you provided. Keep up the great work (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)
