Reply to "What did you do on your layout today?"

Johan,  great photo backdrop,  looks a lot like a view from Cadillac Mtn. in Acadia NP in Maine ?  

Also,  I meant to add:   The weathering on the Maine Central E Unit is spectacular, not too light, not too heavy just really well done... Outstanding 

Mike,  Glad to hear you're feeling some relief.  

I decided last night to get out the acrylics and do some dry brushing on the Grain Elevator.... Took some trial and error experimenting with different colors, but I am pleased with the result and it kept me from wasting time.....   The 1st photo is from yesterday before the dry brushing....  The photographs tend to increase the contrast between the different color clapboards, it's a little more subtle to my eye on the layout, but definitely and improvement....

The new digital level is the coolest thing since sliced bread...  Best $28 bucks I have spent in a long time...  It clearly is finding low and high spots between the outer rails that I couldn't detect....  Photo below....  This one even comes with a small padded case so the display screen doesn't get scratched when not in use.....   

Lionel Man UK, I am pretty sure Mike Reagan is working at Trainworx, he left Lionel about 2 years ago....  could be longer as the older I get, the faster time passes...

Chris. Thank you. I cant remember if that picture has taken from Cadillac Mtn in Maine, but can be. I know that is a from Maine. It's just looking a nice and goes nicely together with a that module scene.
