Bob, does your site give info on prices and availability of your EsPee cabeese? Richard, the boss and banker is an EsPee guy. He's got some brass cabooses, but you can never have enough! He's got some medical stuff that's got to be done, and maybe I can get him one of your kits to mess with.  8)

Just more infrastructure revitalization for me - a few more light fixtures and the first few rows of ceiling tiles in the basement.  Starting to look like a Clean Well Lit Place.  When I came upstairs the dining room was dark and the basement lights were positively glowing through the cracks in the floor.   8) 8)

J.C., I'm addicted to the Ultimate Cajon, and even more to the Ultimate Tehachapi.

I FINALLY got some ballast down, and some gravel roads.  I used an old nylon(no, they aren't MINE) to sift the sand to as fine as I could get it.






the wet stuff is the glue drying.   I like to watch glue dry in the winter, since I can't watch the grass grow.  ::)

We've also used that technique at the club to sift fine sand.

When harvesting sand for ballast, don't forget to run a strong magnet over it at some point to remove metal particles (they might otherwise end up on your loco).

Damn, I was about to compliment you on your standing water modeling.
