Robert,

Looks like another wonderful building on the layout. Bob did a marvelous job on the structure. So when do you come out with another video. And of course, Bob and I get free video's of your layout for all our beautiful structures!!! You need to post some more pictures of the progress on the layout. It's looking great!!!
Congratulations to Bob Butts for a wonderful build.

Bob
As promised it has taken a spot upfront
Again thank you for this awesome build

Thanks for posting the pictures Robert. It looks like it found a great home already. You're more than welcome for the build. I wanted to show my appreciation for the crew that brings us the EXPO. Anything I can do to help out you, Jimmy, Hal, Doug, Brian (did I miss anyone) is my pleasure. I may not make all of the EXPO's but I do plan on attending more of them in the future.

The Fox Mill Running looks really fantastic in that spot. Heck, it looked really fantastic in the box traveling North. I've never seen a Reading Bob structure I didn't like. He is the master of structures.

Did I happen to mention I love the fact he lives a few miles from the Atlantic and Southern RR?

Great spot for the Fox Run - and Bob you do great work! Did I mention that there would be room for a Bob Butts build on the S&S RR - I have a few of those Yellow and Red Boxes

. Just sayin. Great work guys - and Robert thanks for all the hard work on the EXPO.

John
No problem
Working on EXPO is my pleasure
It is a lot of hard work but it is well worth it to see and meet so many great people and Modeler's
We are already planning 2016
Stay tune

Robert,

When I filled out the survey for EXPO 2015 I believe I neglected to mention your and Brian's names. Certainly no slight was intended. I'll just chalk it up to a senior moment.

However, I do want to thank you for all your hard work in the contest room and participation in making the EXPO a great experience for us all.

Thank you very much.

Tom L.

Great location for a great build! Robert doesn't let the static grass grow under his feet when he's working on his layout.

Looks great Rob; I like the natural way it sits in the scene. It's an excellent build of Fox Run; I saw it at the Expo and it has the some of the best concrete I've seen.

Thanks for the nice comments on my build. That was the first time I did a diorama using that material for the concrete streets. Before I used it on Fox Run I experimented with it on a piece of GatorBoard and documented it in this thread: Arizona Rock and Mineral Co. - Concrete Paving Material. I'm sure there's a lot of tips and tricks about using this stuff that I haven't learned yet.

I still have to experiment with their Asphalt Paving Material. I have some but haven't tried it yet.

Maybe one of these days my friend but I have feeling Tom may have some other plans for me between now and the NMRA Convention in 2017.
