Here's another pair of photos of the diorama Dennis Raper hauled all the way from Alabama for the 2011 East Coast Meet in Springfield, Massachusetts. The International 4200 is a resin cab from Steve Del Sesto mounted on a Herpa chassis. The lowboy is a Trail-King from Norscot that has had an axle removed and the deck shortened by 5 scale feet. The International TD-15 dozer is from First Gear. Details include, Herpa tires and wheels, Ralph Ratcliffe air-horn and cab lights, Dennis Aust bumper, headache rack, and forestry tire (on the lowboy), Plano mirrors, A-Line chain, Details West scale lumber, Microscale and JCT decals, PollyScale and Testors paints with Bar Mills and Bragdon Enterprises "Weather System" weathering powders and a variety of manufacturers for all the ground cover. Dennis' models were definitely one of the highlights of the show! Previously featured in Photo Gallery 451.
