A little behind the times, but garage/addition is completely backfilled now.  Now the waiting game until weather improves and framer gets off his current job(s)

That's so beautiful that it brought a tear into my eye.
As a contractor, some one needs an attaboy.

Just minor updates.  I finished the foamboard installation on the concrete walls.  Up next is taking out the center wall that divided the basement in half. 

Sucks not having a garage, most of the $@#^ here would be in it  :facepalm:


Added temporary lighting.  Will be adding drop ceiling on this side as well.  Made brackets to hold the LED panels up for time being :D


And said wall that will disappear

That’s AWESOME that you’ve got that much foam in, but how are you going to build a layout when it’s all vertical like that?

I'll figure something out :D  Or the asshats here will.   :ashat:

This weekend I worked on removing the center wall that divided garage from the railroad area.  Found steel post in the center under the main support beam so non-load bearing wall :D Also the fact that on the front side 1 2x4 only hung on the cinder block by 5/16" or so.  I got some electrical to move around for some outlets but studs will come down, get reused for new walls around the furnace to close that in a little bit and then only framing up the walls along the basement walls. 



One step closer to planning committee meetings, even if they have to be zoom call style.

Look at all that space! So you’ll be doing York to Hagerstown mile for mile right :P

My buddy already has the old layout envisioned for YorkRail on the bottom and Maryland Midland up top  :facepalm:

Somewhere that old Hagerstown yard of @wm3798 and @Ed Kapuscinski  is in storage.  Maybe that will turn up here in the future  :D :o

Clearly, that must have been my error, and explains why layout progress is so slow. All I have is a dorm fridge in the layout space.

Good progress, Adam. I've surely been in your shoes.

Actually that's our freezer :D

Beer fridge is behind me to my right, seen here behind the ladder


Both will ultimately probably end up in the new garage once finished.  Can't take up valuable railroad real estate.

That yard is built in c55 Atlas track.  But even after two moves, its probably easily rehabbed and ready after a third.
I'll look forward to seeing what you can do with it.

I can only hope! I really want it to go to a good home and I can think of none better.
