Well, I got here finally. I had received the brown GGD Coaling Tower on Labor, and the Black one the following Monday. I am very happy to have both and hope to get my new idea for a layout together and hopefully break ground before winter sets in. It will be a 126"x98" design which I have partial plans done, but nothing really solid. I have to work on clearing the back bedroom to get this done as that is where it will be set up, site of the very old and long gone HO layout from so long ago.
I also ran one of my Atlantic engines today to get some exercise while listening to the KC LA game in the other room. I may have missed out on some of the football action, but I needed a little train running today.
