Bob,

Well done for sure. What a beauty.

I just ordered a small tug and barge from Sea Port Models. These will fit on my river area.

Again, a big winner Bob.

Really enjoyed this build, Bob.

She is a real beauty and will look great in front of your red hook wharf, when you build it.

Cheers, Mark.

Hello Bob, I really like the end result and the great pictures as well. I sure hope that someday you can build your own layout for the wonderful kits that you build.    Jeff

Bob,
Looks like you won the Best in Show - Craftsman Builder Award with this gem !
Very nice work and the lighting is awesome.

Well done, Bob. It looks fantastic. And those night shots with your lighting really sing.

Thank you Craig!  The lighting was a bit of a challenge for sure but I think it was worth the extra effort.

What Craig Said!  This has been a fun build to follow, because the "structure" was out of the ordinary and some of the problems and solutions were unique.

Much appreciated Dave.  Glad to have you along for the ride.  Yes, this was certainly something out of the ordinary.  Well, for me at least.  It was a lot of fun though and I'm pleased with the end result.

Thanks Tom!  I ordered the small tug as well (sans barge).  That should look great in your river area.  Should be a much quicker build than this one was.  Of all the Sea Port kits I have this one appears to be, by far, the most complex.

Cheers, Mark.

Thank you Mark!  This may help motivate me to build that one sooner rather than later.  I want to use it as the focal point on a small switching layout someday.

Much appreciated Jeff!  If things go according to plan I'll retire in 3 years, 5 months (not that I'm counting or anything like that  ) and then I can get serious about building a small switching layout.  I haven't seen a train running in roughly 3/4 of year now thanks this dang virus.     That's just not right.
