Who gets lost? It’s an adventure to find something new when you take the road less traveled.

I was once asked while out on tour if I was lost, I simply said "of course not, I'm just taking the scenic route, why ? don't you know where we are"

I've only been lost ONCE in my attire life!!

Unfortunately that occurred when I was seven (7) and I am still trying to find my way back .............

So one more update on the layout, and YES, this really is about my layout regardless of popular (or not so popular) belief. My youngest is coming over on Wednesday and Thursday to help me clean out the Train Room (shock horror) so I am inclined to think that I should expand my little layout one more time by adding an additional 4' X 4' onto it .......................

IF hat happens (and it probably will) I am holding off on the track work till then as I believe that will change as well

This is the area I am talking about for the 4' X 4' extension:

Nice sized piece of property that, Be interesting to see what you decide to do with it.

I'm sure someone will be able to give you some

It is a good size and I have a fare idea what I might be doing, track wise anyway.

I'm sure someone will be able to give you some

Hmmm - I wonder who that may be now ... ???

Forgot to mention the Jig Saw arrived this morning (as promised) and it looks very good not to mention - heavy and solid:

 

[Smudge617]

Big big, but I think you'd enjoy doing this.

That's a long trestle bridge. I'm still in favor of a trestle helix that Tony has planned for this 4'x4' space. Imagine the glory of watching a train climb hundreds and hundreds of scale feet in an area roughly the size of 3 acres... on a trestle...

Not me, I'm staying out of this one!

Let us know how it preforms. As we talked earlier, mine is about shot.

The power supply even has a on off switch with led idiot light

 

[Twinboystrains]

@MikeGTW already making headway! I’m sure Tony will love it.

Regardless of whether I expand that 4' X 4' area I spoke about, I want to have a combination of the following two photo's running from left to right as you look at the layout picture:

That will allow me to "fill the area", give the right part of the layout some interest and will allow me to incorporate my Trestle Bridges some where (I think). I think it will also offer something of interest as well - especially the river, which I really like. I just have to figure out how to make that river look realistic like this one:

Anyway, that is what is in my head - getting it on the layout is another thing
