OK all here is the latest on the Albuquerque Carnuel & Tijeras RR.
Not a lot going on but needed to post an update.

 I wrote ‘happy’.
They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.”

Here is a new video I just took and while not in the build series, it is just having fun.

Mike,
     They're the two Railroads My Grandparents took to come see me when I was born. I model PRR, but layout on hold at present.  My 97 yr old Grandmother finally decided living on her own to much. Thats OK, I can wait. Do have soft spot for ATSF, Grandfather bought Me my first Warbonnet on my 1st birthday.

Well everyone I finally got a small amount of work done in the room as well as some time to finally do video 28.
 It seems when I get the time and start working on the layout I will go great guns for awhile then something comes up and I slow back down.
 It seems right now I am at a peek again and seem to have a few ideas on areas that were hanging me up. WOOOO WHOOOO!!!

Thanks , They are a mix of Monroe Models , Period Miniatures (i think), Woodland scenics, the stacked cars and trucks are by Savonart (on the E Store) and ModelTech Studios. The building is no long available Lark Models.
Thanks , Mike

Today I got out and started to blend the scenery into the mounted Used Car Lot and the Small Depot.
