Began setup of the Juniata Division in its new home.  The island-style of both sections is not exactly and efficient use of space.  Plans are afoot to fix this someday soon.



The pants in the photo belong to the USAFA Cadet we sponsor...  He's still a Doolie so he has to stay in his Class As.  He's being "indoctrinated" into N scale railroading...

Please tell me that you're not just realizing that the movers lost your boxes of locomotives and rolling stock.   ;)

Ha!  No, those came with me in the car.  No way would I trust them with my trains.

Nice to see it unpacked and prepped for running

The pants in the photo belong to the USAFA Cadet we sponsor...  He's still a Doolie so he has to stay in his Class As.  He's being "indoctrinated" into N scale railroading...

Really? We always kept a set of "loosely navy-related" gym gear at our sponsors to change into as soon as we left the Yard as Plebes,

First run on the revived Juniata Division tonight... A Penn Central GP7 from Atlas does the honors with a train of new purchases yet to be weathered. In the consist are the Trainworx PD3000 and a 52' gon plus an Atlas Erie Lackawanna 50' box.  The cabin (out of focus) is a Bluford Shops transfer caboose.

Nice Dave.  Always liked the mixed of equipment you coud have on a PC layout.  Only thing missing is mud and weeds on the track and a derailed car :trollface:

Looks like you're modeling three eras now.  Time to update your signature: PRR in 1956, PC in 1968, and CR in 1980.  :D  I split the difference between 1956 and 1980 and hit the first year of PC's existence, but feel free to pick your own PC year.
