Hello all,

I'm bumping this thread. I have a lot of catching up to do but I won't have time to do it all. What I plan to do is show some highlights until I'm back to normal with Part 4.

Mark, Cheers,

Yes, it is. I also have found a home on the other forum.

Darryl,

When I thought this forum was long gone and not coming back, I drifted to the RR Lines forum.

I've been very active there for the past 18 months. 

Now, I'm spending a little time on each forum but not to a detailed build as I did in the past.

Don't get me wrong, I love this place and will always participate here but I need to pace myself between the two.

A lot has been completed on the A&S RR since Jimmy D. shut down the old forum.

I won't attempt to cover all the step by steps as in past post. I will do a Cliff Notes version to bring everyone up to date. I need to go back a dozen pages and see exactly where I stopped.

I should have an updated update tomorrow afternoon.

I couldn't decide where to start on the update so I'll start on the third level coach yard.

I wanted to have a yard for storage of passenger cars and I had the room. I won't comment here as the photos tell the story.

Remember, I'm giving everyone the Cliff Notes version until I get to the actual update.

The two tracks to the right are the passenger train tracks. They lead into the five track passenger station.

The cork shows where the diesel service facility will go on the upper level. The upper level is also know as Summit.



Done for today.

I started adding ballast to the turntable roundhouse area.



This  is a very busy area.
