Andy,
Sometimes, a song comes along, and the words in a song best describes this addition to your Milwaukee Road pike.
The "Traveling Wilburly's " song .... "End of the Line" ... and the words they repeat in singing it " WELL IT'S ALL RIGHT "  must be about this model you added to your empire.  Very nice build !!!    And best yet, they sing it in a RR car.....

Andy,
Looking at this scene makes me miss even more all the photos of your layout that were posted on the Whistlepost.  Count me in, great scene, especially love the last shot with the Co-op in the background.

Thank you very much guy's, still a lot more to go.
Thanks Tom great song, I always did like that tune.

[ak-milw]

Thanks Jerry, I still miss the Whistle Post. It took me a long time to decide on another forum, this one is starting to feel like home.

Well the cement block sheet got here from Rusty Stumps, still waiting for the metal building from PikeStuff. I can't start on the build until it gets here, I need the building to set the height of the others. In the mean time I got the site ready on the layout. Cement in and I built a wood fence from Rusty Stumps. I guess I can get the grade crossing in and do a little more ballast until it gets here.
