A gift from a niece! I haven't figured out if she was supporting or enabling my RR nuttiness! I'm good either way thouigh!
Bringing some of my Vimeo videos over to youtube, which should be ok as Vimeo gives some folk issues. Here's a few, starting with a quick shot of the SP 4292, Followed by another view of it and a couple other steam loco's,
For those not finding the link, here's the evening shot, And a quick tutorial of using sheetrock mud for the removeable butte,
Yesterday I got the 4-4-0 programmed and rolling as the 119. Left the UP number, laziness, though I was able to get rid of the UP name on the tender and cab. Now to find a way to label it for the NPBH... And a break in run this morning,
Got some basic color on the new li'l butte this morning. And moved some more old video's over to the utub channel;
Added some more 'filler' scenery today, as that was about what my brain could tackle for the day. Was a long week behind me! So, anyway, I added some foam board to the west end of the yard, Then added some more 'mud,' And after some household projects, did some ballast work, Next up? Another long week. One of my sons that worked for me relocated and now I am behinder than I was!
Somedays! And just now, most days! My one son that was working for me took a great job over in Spokane, leaving me in the lurch and behind on several projects. Hurry up and get further behind!
And I finally hit 500 subs on my youtube channel! So, I made a quick layout overview and uploaded some oldies from vimeo to youtube, Thanks for all the support and answered questions and fun!
This morning I went out and finished java time by test running around on the layout in the newly ballasted yard area. Looks like I will be fine tuning some switches!
Be cautious to remove the grains of ballast that inevitably creep up along the rail and firmly adhere there.
