Kurt Best, Visitor, Stops by

My friend Kurt Best from Oregon stopped by for a quick visit on his vacation from Oregon.

Gluing track in BNSF staging

Just starting to glue track in BNSF staging to finally get this completed!  I don't drink soda but I use full soda cans for weights when gluing track.  They fit nicely inside of the track or, as you can see on another post, they work just fine in the upright position too when space is tight.

More Track Laying for the BNSF Staging

Almost done gluing track.  This is the Calwa Jct. area leading into staging.

Mark Lestico's new signal bridges

After a lot of thought, angst and pressure Mark

Updated JMRI panel

Still more changes to come.  Big thanks to Mark Lestico for his help designing this panel...and the 15 or so before it!  LOL.

This is a test message testing photos and use of phone for blogging...it works great! Expect to see more photos on a regular basis!

JMRI Panel Updated

Last week Mark Lestico and I updated the JMRI panel to reflect the current track configuration and making corrections to the panel.  I also added most of the turnout control to the panel.

I have a lot more to do but tentatively planning an ops shakedown for January 14th.  Interested?  Lemme know.
