So the CGW's been kinda mothballed.  But, it still seems to photograph OK, so I should spend some more time doing just that.   

Or you can get crackin on that layout in the house of yours before some time interruption shows up!

Nice train! Question for you, though: did Kato make the ATSF PA with the above-cab numberboard? I thought BLI had the only model with that detail. Or did you add that afterward?

I added it; those are from Sunrise.  Unfortunantly that's another part that they don't make anymore.

Nice Sok, very nice.

Speaking of ModUTrak... any new photos or videos from the Milwaukee show?

Nothing specific from Trainfest. We're going to be setting the modules up here at work again for the holidays and I'm sure we'll cobble a new video together. We have new much larger curve modules, a number of modules that are much farther along than this time last year and more, so we should have enough new stuff to keep it interesting.
