Good afternoon. Had a few inches of snow on the ground this morning but it has all melted off as it is now in the mid 50's.
Eric - It's great to have you back with us on a more regular basis. I missed you and I'm sure than many others did also. I'm glad that you are considering another layout. I was thinking that instead of trying to move your old layout, why not trying to salvage as much as you can in the way of track and buildings and start a new one. From the time you started you layout in Georgia, you gained a lot of skills which became apparent as to layout progressed. I still have the rock molds that you sent back from your mountain and you're more than welcome to use them again. Looking forward to see what you're going to do. With more space, you may be able to have broader curves and not have aome of the problems that you had before with the tight curves.
Sherrel - Nice job with the pallets. My son and his wife have built some outstanding items using pallets. He has a lot of my power tools but I can live with that now that out remodeling projects are complete.
Gene - Those Rapido RDC's are some really outstanding units. I have seen their video on the Rapido web site and was totally amazed. I had seriously considered getting one because the do offer it in DC configuration and undecorated, which would make it easy to decorate for my freelance railroad. If you can, take a video of how well It runs. I was blown away with the details on it.
Being that we were away on a bowling tournament last weekend, we are heading over to my daughters shortly to have a combined birthday party with my grandson Rogan who also had his birthday last week.
Catch you later.
