Looking good, John.

Sayles mill has some nice blending of greys.

Cheers, Mark.

I thought I would share a photograph of the new carpet in the newest section of the layout. I took the picture late in the afternoon when the sun found a way to shine on the wall. ::)  My basement is a walk out so I have natural lighting from the windows and sliding door on two walls of this room. This is a view looking at the North end of the Superior Yard. Eventually, I plan to have an upper and lower level in this area of the layout. This area is serving as a staging yard right now. I will be adding a number of structures, and detail scenery to the lower level before constructing the upper level. This project is a few years out in the S&S RR construction plan.

Great looking benchwork.


Thank you, Curt.  I have a few a few track work change to make now that I have had some time to run trains in Superior Yard. I'm having trouble getting electronic supplies and turnouts. Lots of backorders.

Sorry, I think I just drooled...

What a space!


Craig


Watch the carpet Craig.  I have orders from the CFO that the coffee machine is being moved to the basement. No more going up and down the stairs with coffee cups. Somehow that sounds like a good thing.  ;)

Thank you, I'm real happy with the way it turned out.  By-the-way cabinet 3 was full of TP during the Pandemic.

This evening I have a couple progress pictures from the Sayles Mill build. This first picture shows the glue base that I'm using for the water.  The Titebond III glue dries to a brown color I'm building up the depth to where I want to start the pour for the water.  I will paint the surface of the glue with the colors that I want to show through the epoxy.
