Are you going to weather it?

Yes.

For the floor joists I just picked up some Valspar crackle glaze that should look nice. The walls and hardware will get a good dose of weathering.as well.

Now you just need to take a small propane torch and singe the walls to give it that real look like all the mills and Lawerance and Holyoke lol

Some layout work over the last few weeks. Has been slow picking at this here and there...but we are getting places. Work is still focusing on the east end by Mount Whittier Jct. and the Bearcamp river. The bridge is two CV kits bashed together into a double track bridge. I was also able to make the modifications to a spare ATX power supply so that they can power the LED light strings.

Just a quick check in. Been dealing with some work stuff the last few months and have started to get back into the modeling swing. I've been poking around with some changes to the layout recently and am looking forward to implementing them shortly.

Oh no!! Any time you make changes it means a whole new layout design!  :o

Just step away from the layout and help is only a phone call away.  :D
