Trevor,
That looks amazing! Now that looks like static grass on top of the
ballast. Great looking train!

Hi Dan:
Thanks for the nice words!
I'm enjoying building the layout and got my first taste of its
operating potential this weekend as I've now wired the Port Rowan
yard. The first train...

... a work train, of course, has successfully arrived in Port Rowan
under its own power. Some small tweaks to the track were required but
they took about 30 minutes and things are now running smoothly.
Now to get some more terra foama in place around the track, so that
derailments are an inconvenience instead of a disaster!

particularly like the heading "When I'm 1:64"!!). Your new layout
looks like it will be a lot of fun to build, and even with its small
size, the operating potential looks good.

us permission to share this article and in return it's only decent
that we let others know about the LDSIG so they can consider whether
to become members.
