Anyone that runs Cal Northern stuff is cool in my book!

Haven't done any modeling.  Wife gave birth to the twins last week, and it's been one sleepless night after another.

The SD-9 Cal Northern is mine: since this was my first Free-moN show, I realized that, since my home layout is 2'x4', I didn't have anything bigger than a 4-6-0!
So I HAD to stop by the LHS and pick something up.
When I saw the Cal Northern colors I was hooked.
Now I can pull 20+ car trains.
Yeay Free-moN!

You seemed to have picked up something a bit bigger and more time consuming than a train!
Congrats!
And get as much train stuff in now before they start crawling & walking ;)

mcjaco,

Oh. My. Gosh.  Twins!  Our little girl will be five months old in another two weeks.  She's a great baby, but I cannot imagine raising twins.  Congratulations!  I hope mommy and babies are well.

In long run we figured twins is actually easier than having them one at a time  ;)   :D

Just remember that when you have to send them off to college... Pain all at once or over 8 years... Mine are 13 and 9 so I took the long, painful route... :facepalm:  I missed much of #2 son's early growth spurts since I deployed to Kuwait/Iraq in 2003 when he was only 2 months old.  Not fun for Mom and she still reminds me of that every chance she gets...

Oh yea, I did manage to get some weathering done this weekend...

Putting the handrails on the VO-1000, hopefully  ;)

Seriously though, what you have there looks good Rick.

Rick, I see you're in Sewell, NJ. Interesting... I was born there, although I live in Toms River now. So, hello to my old hometown.

Thanks guys.  It's been really tiring (one and a half hours of sleep last night).  All are well, the boys just like us really tired.   :P

Thanks guys. 

The SD's are still in line.  I've got to crank out 2 GP15-1's first, both in the OLS scheme.  Haven't started on the MT-6 project yet either.  I've also got a workbench full of OPS (other people's stuff) to finish as well.  Not enough time in the day sometimes.
