Hello John

Super layout thread but I should stop at this site more often. You are doing s great job! I'm hoping after the August wedding I'll have time to scoot on over to visit with you and the Florida Mafia errrrr group. That's quite a stash of Jordan's you got from Tom. Have fun after one you will be hooked. Had a great time visiting with you yesterday and catching up on our life's. Keep up the excellent work and your welcome here anytime. Maybe next time the plow will be finished.

Thanks for the reviews. Track is cleaned, ballast secure, vehicles and rolling stock populated, train running and a few dozen more trees planted. When I look at the before and afters, I'm really happy with the ballast color and impact (Erieman called that one).

What a great scene. John you really have something nice there. Looks like it should be on a magazine cover.

Looks great John. Saw your comment to me about Mancuso Tree Service.  That's where you must of inherited your tree skills.  Jim

True, Jim. Many years in the branches of Westchester County, NY. But I never learned to put them up 


Thanks for watching. I'm here all week.

Some different angles. The piece of plastic leaning on the engine house is marking a possible wooden fence to come.

More. Photos help me model...
(1) straighten the finial on the FSM station roof
(2) That fence placement really doesn't make sense, but I really want to find a spot for a beat up wooden fence with signs and missing boards
(3) I'm considering a ball signal (BEST) just to the starboard side of the shorty boxcar behind the red engine

I'm still lost.  What establishes 12 or 6 ??

Where the valve is on the clock, but these are such fine details , hard to see on an HO model.


Makes 'ya glad you're not modeling in N scale or Z.
