The CSG Club Cam and the NASG Armco Steel Building
A recent acquisition of the Connecticut S Gaugers has
been a train mounted camera that is used on the club's
modules that are displayed at area train shows. Bob, while
not owning a module, has contributed significantly to the
modular layout since joining the club. This photo, taken on
Bill Fuhrman's home layout, shows how Bob mounted the camera
inside the crates of a New Haven gondola. Bob created the
crates. The camera, popular with train show attendees of all
ages, provides a great trackside view that is projected onto
an overhead monitor. The camera is from M & S Communications, Box 28631,
Providence, RI 02908, phone 401-354-6941. In 2002 the National Association of S Gaugers (NASG)
commissioned the creation of their first ever structure
building kit. This is the Armco Steel Building that sells
for $20 apiece for members/$18 for two or more. The photos
above and below show how Bob assembled and finished the kit.
He added many of the details including the workbench and
acetylene canister which he created. The corrugated door, in
the raised position in these photos, was also Bob's
creation.
The
photos of the Armco building below were taken on Bob's home
layout.
