Lessons learned: Siding Stops need to be a priority in the Superior Yard.








No-  I'm not blaming that on my Grandson. My bad, forward vs. reverse with a GP-7.

The foundation for the Whispering Falls build is in the paint booth.

In a couple of places, I've used FastTracks PC Board ties turned upside down, soldered to the rail.  I figure those aren't going anywhere if they get hit by a string of cars.  (I paint the tie to look like an old weathered tie, and I'll probably add a couple more ties or a pile of something on top of the PC Board tie.)

I have no idea why my pictures are so small?

What did you say?


The pictures are way to small to show any detail - just started happening - I think I have to relearn how to use the apple photo's program to make them the right size/resolution.  I will work on it when I get a chance.

Yes, Tom you have point. Can we just have the election today.  I think everyone has already made up their minds.

I think I'm going to use piles of rail ties like I did in the Eagles Nest yard. It is basically the same idea only I can cut and glue them in big batches.

The rock bases look great whitewashed.

I have the foundation painted and I took pictures as I went.  Now, if I can just figure out how to post them with the right resolution. I still think the problem is on my end but I need to do some testing.

Still squinting at your progress from the land of the long white cloud, John.

I'd say 'looking good' because I'm sure it does, but...

Cheers, Mark.
