I'm glad I delayed putting wood on, I think I'll like this much better than what I had planned before.
I'm glad I had a bunch of spare pieces, I just dug into the inventory and had everything I needed to stick that section in. It really is easy to modify, I ended up modifying the original plan as well, I moved the lift-gate and reconfigured one of the sections to give more space under the layout. It was a piece of cake.
The reversing loops are a great idea, and a lot of fun....Grandad always said the most fun he had was during the war when he worked OT as a hostler, when man power was short he got the chance to back down a hudson on the reversing loop to couple on to a train just brought in by an electric at Harmon......anytime he told that story he’d say..”I was a big dog that day”.............Pat
