Yay! SWSat is on.
We are off to a nice start this very warm week. Thanks Rich.
I was trying to see if a nicely built two rail O Scale Varney B&O B18 4-6-0 would fit on my small switching layout. It will not make my tight track work. I mainly got it because it was well detailed and I thought I could learn how to make my own efforts better. The added wire soldiered around the cab and tender edges I have not seen it done before but the engine wheel brakes are positionable. It still need a few things like handrails.
On the NYSME layout here is a little preview of a big switchable industry project I am working on. Last week I cut a lot of windows in the new huge coal breaker we are building as well as the supporting trestle on the loader. We designed the huge building to wrap around a problematic support column so visually it take up a lot of space but functionally it is a facade that on the ground takes 4 inches along one side. When it is done there will be 4 coal loading tracks, a rock waste loading track and a supply and service track. Track is still going in at a quick pace and I can add the last support legs this week when the rails get laid and spiked.
Have a great weekend guys. I can’t wait to see what you guys post.
