Good morning all,

First of a three-day weekend here in sunny Florida.  Yard work this morning.  Then a trip to a couple of stores and to pick up lunch.  Hopefully the afternoon will be open for workbench time!

Have a great one!

Good morning Bob and those that follow.  Modeling day for me today. :) I sent out the Gazette, yesterday, so the plan is to spend the day working on the layout. I still a few items to check off the house maintenance list but who ever gets everything off that list. Have a great day,

John

Good Morning All,

Started out the day with a pleasant walk at 62F.

I'm not sure what is on the agenda today and MOH has been dealing with a low grade  illness for several days now.

No progress on the project as I wait on detail parts.I've decided that initially I'll use a gondola in the scene but after the new year I'm going to order 2 Pennsy F22's (flat cars) from Funaro. I'll swap these with the gondola.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Spent a portion of yesterday setting up some new tech for the office/workshop. I grew tired of transferring files between my three computers, so I bought and setup something called a NAS. Essentially a shared, network-accessed hard drive. It's good stuff.

Anyway, have a great weekend!

Good Morning and Good Afternoon, depending on the time zone you reside it. Been busy with non railroad projects recently. We had the main house and train building aka the guest house repainted. Same color, just a refresh. 

Currently working on painting, adding windows, shades, etc. to many the city buildings on the city scape of the layout. Adding lighting to the structures. They range from two to twelve story structures. Buildings are from a variety of manufacturers including City Classics, etc...  Most have been primed before hand but several have not. (Forgot how to add photos so any assistance would be greatly appreciated). There are somewhere about 30 buildings that need all or part finishing. All will have LED lighting and many with interior detail. This is going to take a while!!!

Have a great day.
