Thank you for following along. I'm enjoying your builds also.

Bob,

Thank you, very much appreciated.

Morning all and all drifters,

As Terry said, "It's raining here this morning." 100% all day and most of tomorrow. Puts a damper on my yard work.

I'll just suck it up and play, err, I mean work in the A&S RR office today.

I'll update the FOS REA build later this afternoon.

Have a safe and healthy day ya'll.

Morning all,

Nothing special going on here. I have bowling at noon and then a late lunch with friends.

Have a safe and healthy day everyone.

Jeff,

I'm on the bandwagon as well. Looks like a neat one to build. The stock photo has Jason Jenson weathering and look all over it.

Jeff,

Great progress. The road will look fantastic crossing the tracks.

I then carefully sanded any dried glue left on the wall.



Done for today.

I extended the interior wall to far to the end. I marked on pencil where it needed to be cut. I then used a sharp new #11 Xacto blade and cut along the pencil line.



I then used a #17 Xacto blade and carefully removed the small section of wall.

Since the warehouse walls are so long, I wanted to add vertical bracing to prevent any possibility of warping.

I laid the interior roof beam against the wall and marked where the rafter ends met the wall.

The vertical wall bracing was added and painted to match the walls.
