Mark,
A good majority of the club members are retired now. There are a few that still work (now that is a bad word to say around Bud). He was only employed! I read from another post you are getting close to that plateau. It is really nice to wake up each day with zero stress and none of that work bs. I get to work on the club layout.
Yes, we are taking our time building it right with very few errors and some minor wiring mods which I have been fixing, re-soldering some switches where the sounds drop out or engines stop. Seems to be roller-related on some pieces so I have been soldering small jumper wires on the center rails on the frogs. I finally made Bud a believer that this will solve those issues.
