Thanks. Not sure how much modeling I have left to do as I have quite a collection. I have a layout design done, much smaller than I originally envisioned (was not planning to retire in El Paso). I am going to reuse about half of the old Boise sub for my lower level. Upper level will be completely new and have a yard, a JSR branch and a 12' long paper mill. I think I will have about 14 10' long staging tracks. Will offer good opportunity for operations. Layout is smaller than I orginally planned to make (assumed I'd retire up north in the land of basements). As a result I will probably sell off about half my rolling stock as I collected stuff for 15 years. No need to detail and weather it if I'm not going to run it. I have started preparing the garage for version 3 of the Boise sub division with new walls, outlets and lighting. Not moving too fast as life is pretty busy, but looking forward to getting the benchwork up. Once the room is prepared I will start on the fun stuff. Carl Sowell has already offered to help.
Yes Sir Tony, just give me a call, my wage is pretty simple. Perhaps a beer or two. On the other hand, I may just ask for some of your talents and help with two new projects that I am about to start. How about another, better version, of B'mann EM-1 bashed into an SP AC-9 along with converting a B'mann 4-8-4 Class J into an SP GS-1. Can't wait to get started. SP lives ! ! Carl
Tony: I was just thinking about you the other day. I almost gave you a call. Nice to see you back. Lots of changes in my life too. Pete Steinmetz
Tony, I'm looking forward to seeing you build another one! Do you have a tentative track plan you could share with us?
