The new area is looking great! You have been a very busy guy. So when are we going to hear about an addition to the building. 

John,

Thank you my friend and yes, I've been busy on the center section. No more additions, the City of Orlando said "Tom, that mother will have no more babies."

Bob,

Thank you, much appreciated.

The SP&S is in Tahope, Fl. after delivering some very special railroad items. It will be returned when they send me the ACL boxcar back.

Karl,

Much appreciated as always, than you.

Yes, it is FSM Station #235. I'm going to change the roof to rolled roofing and repaint the aluminum roof.

I built that station some 30 years ago.

The SP&S has an exchange program with the A&S RR.

I've been absent for the past five days. My sister was in town and I didn't get anytime to work on my AS for the past five days.

The good, er, great news is that I've been out here for the past 9 hours.

Today, I started wiring the entire center section including the reverse loop.

Feeder wires in the roundhouse area -

Also,

The last two photos put me over the 3900 picture mark for the thread. That's a lot of photos over the past four years. An average of 975 per year, 81 per month and 2.7 per day.

WHEW! I'm tired just typing that information.

Tomorrow I'll share what I plan to do with an FSM kit.

What is really impressive is the amount of work you've accomplished in just the last year... I was lucky enough to have a tour of your layout last summer. Since then you have added the upper deck structure and the new peninsula down the middle. For comparison, just look at a picture from then

Congratulation on the land mark - that's a lot of work and time away from your layout to share it with us.  Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful layout with us.
