Souvenir shot at CP Ed on Eric's NKP last night...


K2 204 filled in as the switcher at Tucker, and handled the job admirably for a 40 year old mechanism!

More progress towards implementing Dispatcher-controlled train order signals and semaphores on the Columbia and Western.  Everything has been prototyped and tested now and all seems to work ok.  I am in the process of running the 5V and 15V supply lines to all the Digitrax DS64s scattered around the layout and fabricating the micro-relay circuits which will take the output from the DS64s and drive the fascia-mounted LEDs (and TO semaphores one day).

Went to the local mini-trainshow.

Picked up a few cars, and a bunch of detail parts. Might mess with something later. There were absolutely 0 of the cabooses I was looking for.

If N scale had good SD40-2s, C30-7s, U30Cs, SD45s, SD40s, and SW10s; I'd be in N scale.

David, I'll be looking forward to your new venture! Just make sure it doesn't detract from your work on the Z-scale G&D... :)

As for me, this is actually from last weekend, but my picture from the train show didn't come out so I had to re-shoot it. I finally got the northwest retaining wall for my bridge module completed (though just sitting in place, not permanent yet):





And yes, I know I still need to add the drainage pipes. :)

When I'm not recovering from a nasty stomach bug, I'll find one of my old bridge threads and add the details.
