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

WOW great work everyone!

Mark, I think I still have a bag of the stuff I used, let me look and if so I will take a photo of it for you! Oh and Nice find on the engines! Great price and easy fix's!

Rich, I will give it a try on a scrap piece of wood and see how it goes! Wonderful idea!

Chris, once again WOW! You sure have an understanding wife! It can see with the skills of the carpenter that its really just going to be one big wonderful piece of furniture!

Randy, what a wonderful winter scene! It is just about that time!

Bill, that sure is alot of switches. I sure hope everything is still working when you have it all put together! Would make alot of crawling under the table!

Jeff, looks like a great start. Take the time and enjoy as much time as you can with your dad! It will really mean the world to him and to you later in life!

Bob, I will check later this morning and let you know later today! I know I have some switches under the table, just forget what they are!

Ok, now that I am up to speed with everyone here is what I have been up to. I mad a new retaining wall at the base of my mountain using an old beer box and some wood cut to length as you all know I am cheap! LOL I then made the stone portholes for my lower tunnels, added some trees and more dirt for a dirt road, and last but not least wired in almost all my building. so now I can turn them all on and off using one power source and switch.

Here are a couple photos, and a shot video.

I hope you all have a great week and find time for your layout and trains! Be safe and have fun!
