Article #66: Model Trains with Backdrops and ways it can be done

 

This new article is all about doing backdrops with model trains and we will go over 1 way it could be done and the way it was done in the photo above. The photo above shows Alexander Railroad S3 #6 pulling local C53 with a nice blue sky going through a field. This photo in the background is a composite photo not originally a part of the photo showing the locomotive on the layout. This can be a good way of doing backdrops where you erase the background of the original photo and if 2 pictures like this fit together. The angle here is more so an oncoming angle where you can see the background well.
