Not much happening this weekend that I am aware of. The wife has not informed me of any urgent “honey-dos” as of yet. I know we may need to work on the swimming pool some and I have to clean the filter in the fish pond.

Hopefully I can work on the Farm House Diorama. I need to begin sprucing up the farm house which may mean disassembling it and repainting it. I would also like to start on the reefer kits and finally finish weathering the covered hoppers that have been on the bench for months.

I plan to add more trees to the layout.

I'm also working on a building kit.


Stay cool and run steam...... graemlins/cool.gif :cool: :cool:

Maybe a little here and there. I asked my wife for a list of all the things I have to do before the daughter's wedding on August 27th. I got it last night. I will be busy . . .

Packing everything up for the big move on Tuesday.

11 F units came in the mail today, managed to save all the Athearn ones (6) the other ones (Life-Like, Tyco) will likely put put away for later projects, specifically finding powered or unpowered Athearn or other chassis for them.

I hope I can squeeze some time in doing something. I may try to finish a diesel I was working on, or take apart and clean and lube a new Swiss motorized passenger unit I purchased on ebay a while back.

Probably do some mock ups and planning. Lower level track is in and operational so I'll probably just have some fun running 50-60 car trains.

I bought a digital camera, took a few pics last night, got them into the computer, now the PC is playing up so I can't get them into Railimages. other stuff happpening, had to wake up ealry this morning to call Arizona to book a car, for the trip. We had tried the International desk here in Sydney, but they didn't know to much about Flagstaff, but thankfully that is done and there isn't any more to do to be ready (other than pack!!!!) 4 weeks to go.
CityRail is assisting with my spending money by forgetting to hire enough guards so I'll be working tomorrow (Sunday) - don't like mornings but can't say no to double time :D

I have some other (non-railroad) jobs to do, but if the Evergreen styrene sheets arrive, I may get to make a start on my lumber merchant building.
