'You' rusted up the couplers too...don't you mean the reaction between metal and water rusted up the couplers as well as the remainder of the car? It's called oxidation and it happens to lots of things (lol).

Great job!

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Late update, but was a birthday present to myself. A day off to get work done, and then play downstairs in the basement after I realized I had opened up a cold for my birthday. Course it was 1:00 AM when I realized I was still downstairs watching trains go back and forth and I had to go to work today.

To get a better sense of how the trains will flow I had to break out the old DI Twin Stacks. I must say those low profile trucks that can cause fits on an NTRAK layout really glide along on the ME and Atlas Code 55 rails.




Here's what it looks like from slightly below track level.



The track is temporary until the trestle is built, unless I can figure out how to paper print a bridge to put in place.
