Superior & Seattle Railroad Build

Well, I guess it is time I seriously considered upgrading my Campbell's Soup cans and string.

Wow Tom, you have the Campbell soup version. I have that foreign one with Knorr.

I think you will find that the upgrade from the soup cans will be just as cool as going from DC to DCC.

John,

Thanks for the overview. I can see beyond the clutter and see great progress with the trestle and trees. Speaking of trees, Wayne called last week and we talked about getting together this week to plant more trees. Probably mid week. I have a bunch cut and cleaned and ready for flocking. Since we are having high temps, the flocking dries real quick. Thank you again for your help on the trees. I have really gotten them down and this will go fast. What a different it makes.
I'll be working at Russ's layout today. We will be starting to work two days a week, one day on his and one day on mine, so we can have both layouts farther along for the convention.

Have a great day.

Thanks for the kind words. Keep Wayne busy while he is out there - he needs to keep in top form.  We have lots of trees and track to add this summer on the S&S.

I cleaned up the place a little for Randy and Sue's visit so I thought I would post a few photographs of the trestle project without all the tools and junk on the benchwork.

The cross-bracing is complete on the first 16 bents - and 7 more bents are assembled and ready for installation on the Mt. Aiden Trestle.

[S&S RR]

A couple different views from the front and back - adding bents 17 and 18.
