Willie,
I have a basic drawing I did on a large piece of paper shows the benchwork and basic main track layout. Bu no I really dont have any drawings. There is a fella on another forum that has offered to help make one but I havent gotten to it yet. My knowledge on things computer are not very good. Glad you enjoyed the video.

my sleep issues started after returning from the 50th state. But my brother swears about how great his cCPAP machine is. As do so many others
IMO the machine business for sleep issues is the biggest of insurance and medical scams. Every illness they talk about at the doctor office always comes down to Sleep. Any pills I take are, “well you need this because you are a diabetic”.
Please don’t think I am blasting you and your machine I am not. It works for you and I am happy for you for that.
By the way, when you joined the Railroad Line forums the other day IMO you joinEd one of the most helpful group of supreme scratch modeling experts online. There are none that come close. Like being here there are no egos there

Good afternoon. Finally a decent night sleep from midnight to 8:45am. Lots of action here this morning in the Diner.
Tested at the Conic this morning and waited until the lab got the results, negative go home the doctor will call you, she had an emergency to handle and is working on that patient. Doctor called and said that while home test kits are 95% accurate they don’t always tell the right story. on and on she went. I don’t have Covidand now will fight our insurance for this mornings testing at the Clinic instead of the free Dane County drive throughs.
Jerry, also congrats on retirement. I retired at 61 and turned 62 a months later and drew my SS immediately. When you draw and why are very important and really take the time on a withdrawal decision. In my case (ducking behind the counter) while I am entitled to it, as I was part of the program I fortunately don’t need it. Want it, of course, need, nope. It is my spending money for hobbies.
Philly, the City. Been there, done that both for football and hockey. While they are a tough hard nosed fandom for their teams Terry and I whenever we were there for the NFL we were never mistreated. In Detroit yes, a nasty terrible and scary city. Don’t wear your team stuff in Detroit, East Lansing or Ann Arbor, IMO.
Absolutely terrible days past and coming for Kentucky and Illinois weather victims. I see the EPA has been taxed with discovering the role Climate Change has affected the severe weather being experienced. This ought to be an interesting report.
Police, government, clergy and others: no one is perfect, no one is ever 100% right. There are bad apples in each barrel but when you find them do the right thing, throw them out or in this case expose them publicly. Our problem basically being exposed now is that in many cases it is years later that we find out about these wrongs. Lots of folks knew but swept stuff under the rug. Well you know the rug gets lumpy and someone checks out why and that were the bad apple stories went. I find that NDA or non disclosure agreement are a good part of the problem. Eliminate them from the legal system and we may get less under the rug. This is a minor project to be worked on. Has anyone have any ideas on the nail plate, how to do?

Afternoon All,
Started out with some chores then did the initial ballasting (dirt) on the new sidings and cinders on the track where coal gets dumped for the coaling tower. Now at a standstill until tomorrow. I need to look on YouTube for making a walking path. The idea is a path from the terminal office to where the diesels are at.
Jaz- Great looking kitchen. Great scenes. Awesome scratch building. I love the 3-wheeler.
Joe- Thank you. That was a great game.
Dave- That will be a highlight of your layout.
Terry- Congratulations on your new arrivals. I would have thought the IM locos would run better than the Bachmann.
TomO- The building looks like it started as a roundhouse. I look forward to seeing what you do with it. What's the purpose of the egg crate and straws? You could use tulle for that.
Troy- Sad news about Anne Rice. I read 3-4 of her vampire books until I had my fill of vampires. Same thing happened with the "walking dead series", I watched 3 seasons then got tired of zombies and basically the same story line every season.
Willie- Nice scenes. Neat scratch build. Too bad it isn't in a more visible location.
Guy- I have found it amazing how small things really change the look of the building, even if it's a cheap plastic kit.
This terminal office replaces the foundry. This is from FOS and I believe it was my first craftsman kit even if it's pretty basic.
I hope everyone has a good night.

There is a billboard in Baltimore "Defund the police and free Palestinian" WTF?
Defunding the police anywhere is a stupid idea. Defunding the police in Baltimore is insanity!
While I'm on this topic, the Baltimore Police take a lot of blame for our rise in violent crime. I believe the problem is Baltimore's prosecutor. Why arrest people when the prosecutor lets half of them off.
I'll share my idea to curb the drug problem and crime overall. Arrest people for public intoxication and hold them for 24 hours.

Good afternoon Everybody!
Been very busy, thank God for the energy needed.
now that I'm feeling so.much better I realize just how sick I was for so long.
We must support our troops from the time they signup until the time they leave us. God Bless them all.
I believe every citizen should vote, but no one should be President unless they have served in the armed forces. It is easy to talk tough when you don't know what you are talking about.
Have a great day Everybody!
God bless us Everyone

Louis: Nice to see you wound up, a tad. Means you're feeling better. I agree with everything you have to say.
Problem with most East Coast cities, with Orthodox Progressive Liberal Mayors and Prosecutors is that they believe their own rhetoric. They couldn't see evil, if the fell in a pool of it, but know how to address it...by blaming everyone, but the evil, for the evil behavior.
Can't fix stupid...

I haven't found any to print yet. But, I also haven't looked.
I did print out a Tiger tank at 1:160 scale, and put it next to a Woodland Scenics dude and car (from the carwash scene)
The Tiger is almost 10 tall, and over 20 feet long on the chassis. The actual tank is 20mm high and 37mm long. My brain isn't up to figuring out the maths on the conversion. Might still be too large

Curt- You did a nice job on the kit. Looks like all the windows went into the right holes! I sometimes have trouble with that.
I like the way you faded the paint and washed the roofing. Nice light weathering touch all around and the lighting is about the correct brightness for each room.
My only question is why do you have dirt and rocks on the lower roof? It is only my ignorance asking.
