OK here we go....did you check out the previous post ???  :o  ;D Alright  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D

Here's the new section height...56" (same as the rest). These shots show the shelf height and location...

I hope all this isn't too much "going round-n'-round-back-n-'forth" etc....  I just sometimes get my 'wants' mixed up together with my 'druthers' and lose sight of the obvious FACTS...."reason/purpose; viability/cost; and logical expectations/time-work & effort;" ::)  ::)  ::) OH yeauh...am I "pissing uphill?" :o  :o  :o  :o  :o
Patrice is excited to watch the trains run, and THAT'S A BIGGIE  ;D  ;) so I'll go out in the garage and 'rustle up some lumber'(there's a bunch to look through); and as soon as we find out about her hand, I'll plan a schedule to begin work. :)   She and Gage are going to New York (Putnam Valley in the Peekskills) to visit Jeremy and Georgia (son and daughter-in-law) and the grandkids from May 30th till June 3rd. ;D  ;D  ;D   I can work on the thing then. ;)  ;)  I figure the first 2 days 30th & 31st I'll build the hand laid trackage/cork roadbed; then on the 1st and 2nd I'll put up the 'shelves' and install the 'preassembled trackwork'. 8)  8)  ;D  ;)   I'll screw around with the ballast and ground cover later on this summer.  I want to make sure we do all we need to regarding her 'floppy-hand'. ;)  ;) 

Ya'll stay tuned...keep those cards n' letters coming......see ya..... ;)  ;D  ;D  ;D

Kyle this new approach makes a lot of sense in both time and $$ so I hope it works
out the way you envision it. Will be keeping Patrice in my thoughts for a speedy recovery.

Kyle,

An indoor garden railroad, that's something you don't see everyday. 8)

This will be an interesting project that I'm looking forward to see it progress.
