I received a special package from Slim - the LED shop lights for the Locomotive Works and some other future projects.  Great custom packaging Bill.  I'm looking forward to installing these.

Your right - I just added taking pictures to my to-do-list for, today. 

[S&S RR]

As promised, here are a few progress pictures. These are the "whats on my workbench variety".  First, the Mackenzie build, adding the pond water and cattails.  The MOD PODGE water is the second coat and I may have went a little too heavy on the second coat - it taking forever to dry clear. The cattails are glued in long and then trimmed and painted with the brown tops.

I working on a number of fronts on the Locomotive Works.  The metal roofing is almost complete on the roof sheds. I should be able to finish this up and start the coloring / weathering process, tomorrow. This is the first time I've used the paper version of metal roofing. So far, I really like it, we will see if I still feel the same way about them after the roof is weathered.  I made a test sample and liked the way it turned out. I would take a picture but I can't find it.

I took some more update pictures but the internet is taking it's sweat time uploading them to the cloud. I think the boss is streaming a TV program upstairs. I'll post them in the morning.

Here are a few more progress pictures of the Locomotive Works.  I'm building the boiler for the steam driven belt drive system for the machine tools.

The interior is still a work in progress - installing more machines and the belt drive system.

I really like the last picture of the interior. It's very nicely done.
