An Un-Update

It seems like forever since I've written anything here. Hopefully, that'll change soon, but for now, suffice it to say there's a lot in the works. There's an enginehouse in the design stage, Slate Creek #10 will soon undergo a ground-up rewiring and power / sound system change, I'm working out the final details of the turntable mounting (note that it NEEDS to be in place before the enginehouse arrives,) and oh, yes, the 2-6-6-2 is still awaiting some engineering rework as well.

Then, also, with any luck, we'll have new lights in the basement, so visitors can actually SEE the railroad....

Lots of new and interesting projects on the horizon! Now if I can just get some done enough to take photos, this will be a much more interesting blog to follow.


This photo is from a few years ago, when Gaetan Charette and Nicole came by, and we hit all of the local railroad hot spots... Tweetsie, Doe River Gorge, Spencer ... of course, Cass is something of a stretch to be considered "local," but that's not the point! Gaetan, as well as Bruce Chandler, Doug Matheson, and yours trule also make up a group of folks with a very special 1:20.3 project several years in the making that may turn up here very soon as well!

In any case, stay tuned!
