Greetings everyone and a glorious Monday to'ya!
We had a great fun time yesterday with my small op session. Carey's health improved with every minute run-time. The medicinal properties of model railroading are amazing.
There were only four of us, but we ran in a relaxed mode and visited, ran, visited, ran, for about six hours. Great fun and RailOp software makes operations smooth and trouble free. No clumsy car cards.
This week a new project!
Yeah, I know and you don't have to whisper (...that crazy so-and-so won't stay on any one thing more than five minutes...) Naw, this one is something that has been hanging and is holding up all work on my North section of layout and should only take a few days. IT"S Backdrop TIME.
I already have the backdrops up and painted a sky blue, but haven't done any clouds, as yet. After seeing Ron's (Myowngood) method of painting the sky, I have decided to give it a try. The first hurdle I have is to move all the 2D backgrounds (not glued, thankfully), buildings, and a yard full of cars. I have taken photo shots of it all, have a car location list (RailOp) for them, and hope to get everything back in proper place. So, I will either have a beautiful skyline for the city of Ashland or a horrible mess (not to be confused with M.E.S.S
)
Have a good'un!
