Today I finally assembled it. Not much there exept the rails now, still have some rough spots to fix, but its prety much operational. Was very fun running trains on it today. Now I know how you guys feel!
Some photos...
#1 The layout as it is. If you look carefully you'll see that there's a track that's not connected to anything. It's set side to be a monumnet for a very special engine.
#2 The first train:
BN 980 C-Liner
CP 1522 GP9u
CNJ 50' gondola
BN 50' boxcar
CN 40' boxcar
BN caboose
#3 Those switches keep on derailing every other train...
#4 A funny rear-ender by the Geep in DPU duty at the moment.
I find the insulators worked really good in isolating the depo from the system, also the middle track in the middle works great for turning engines around, making them run incorrectly (forward is now backward), good for mixed consists.
I'll be posting updates if you guys want to see them.
