Howdy. 

This scene on the Franklin & South Manchester is easily recognized.

It feels like half the week has already gone by even though it's only Tuesday. Hopefully the rest of the week won't drag on. 

Later.

Morning.  Another nice cool day here in the Merrimack Valley. I realized yesterday  I missed the local railroad club on Sunday.  I've gotten some decent deals there in the past. This is what a wet barrel hydrant looks like when it gets hit

A water main break is something I've never seen anyone model...

I did one more test on tree-making, I need to write up the results.  I'll play with the laser a bit more today.

Morning all,

Supposed to rain on and off today.  We're going to Dubuque to see my wife's mother.  She's been in the hospital twice in the last month with electrolyte issues.  She's had this issue in the past and they can't seem to fix it.  Fortunately, two of my wife's sisters still live there and can keep an eye on her. 

I did get two turnouts hooked up yesterday, one more to fix.

Windy and overcast skies in the cedar swamp today. The big water is riled up.  :(

Overnight storms have left 1/2" in the tube this morning. It seemed dry when we arrived yesterday.

Watched Monday night Football last night KC looked good, Denver, discombobulated  :o Taylor Kelce looked radiant  ;D

Plans not complete for today. Need some breakfast.

Be well all. .

Hello all. It has been awhile. The railroad is still progressing; I will post some pictures of areas that have been finished or redone. I have two new tools to help me, my 3d printer, and a used laser, which I just wore out. When I get back from vacation I will get it repaired or replace. Take care all

George Sellios has one of those on the F&SM. However, it is the repair portion and not the water gushing up in the air portion.
