    I started my new layout some time ago, but due to lack of time, it is progressing very slowly :(

    Yes, we would love to see some progress photos of your layout [​IMG]

    Well the layout doesn't really look very decent at the moment......... But I tell you what, as soon as I get the track laying portion done, I will fill you in with a few photos...... And in seconds I will post a track plan for you to see, but that's the best I can do for now (digital Camara in need here!)

    :cool:

    Caliente looks about finished to me, Eugen [​IMG] Except when I was there, I parked the car just above where the Rio Grande boxcar is, and that area was very muddy and rutted :(

    The parade of trains was great, though [​IMG]

    But you are correct, a layout can be complete, but never finished ;)

    Speaking as a father of four, I can attest to that- the new kids take up almost all your time.
    Don't worry- your time will slowly re-appear.

    This whole Caliente area is a blast. I think it was about 8 or so years ago and a budy and I spent most of a day in this canyon. The loaded oilcans came up the river wash with 4 EMD's on the point and 6 more towards the rear. We had hiked up the wright of way to where the rails disappear off to the left at the top of the canyon. Talk about a show Alan. I bet it took half an hour for the helpers to come slugging by us-what a treat to have witnessed.
