Hey Richie .. you still building them?

Sure am John . awaiting parts for that Vacuum Car . I think the plan is on iteration 6 by now . More parameter challenges with its many stages that I imagined . It is more than one car now and less than 5 . The final decision will come with the awaited parts and the tests .

Limited hobby time available this week but I did finish the install of the two bridges, so last pictures I will post on here.  The piers and abutments made last week were installed, the surrounding scenery finished and more trees added

McCormack Creek



and Barr Creek





Have a great weekend!

I don't know if that's true Jason, but thank you regardless. 

I can see that your steam loco castings clearly *do* have that effect though! :)  For every one person writing "awesome" when they see your work I am sure there are more than 10 who are thinking it.  The quality on TRW sets a high standard.

Thanks Mark!

In your case it is true.   And more importantly the reports of how awesome the layout is in person and what a great host you are have made it all the way back to Houston Texas!

Thanks for all of your contributions

Mark . I think he is correct .. I am completely impressed with the work you've done .. I am actually jealous of Gary --- he gets to see this in person ..

Stunning work as always, Mark.

My offering this week is the successful installation of a beacon.  Demonstrated in a grainy video that would make Zabruder proud...
