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."

Unreal. lol

In other news, put decoders in a bunch more locomotives yesterday. I was feeling an early-Conrailesque power shortage. But no longer.

I do love it so.
I'm really looking forward to:
1. Finding some good photography to use for the backdrop.
2. December, so I can go shoot some photography to use for the backdrop.

I think that will really make it pop too.

You could go shoot in September/October and make it Popp.

Where's the dirt bike racing oval in that space where the roundhouse used to be? That looks like the perfect place some kids would be tearing it up.

That's an interesting idea, actually. Although, it's in the middle of an active facility that's bounded by tracks on all sides.

I found this the other day, and thought of your layout....Rigby yard, S.Portland, Maine.....A couple of dumpsters and tie stacks and you're there!

What I like about this picture is the negative space.  Yards are vast, and there's usually a lot of empty areas.
