Yes, I like that too. Now when a locomotive gets turned on the turntable, it can through the coaling tower area for a quick service. Adding a water spout there would also help with the quick service.
Well, duh. Thanks Dave, that solves my dilemma over where to put the water tank…(http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif)
No problem. It just kinda made sense to me. I didn’t know you had the room there for the whole tank, thats why I suggested a water spout.
Looks just like the real railroads (http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)
Your doing good Ken. But it should be done by now

Not really. Life has thrown other obstacles in the way…gettin sumthin done on it today. (http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif)
Further progress:
I can say that the track work in Delores is done. All that’s left here to do is work on the Interchange/Storage part. That may be next.
looks great, Ken…

Me to but your house is north west not west from there
Woah! that is progress. Looking real good. I think you’ll get some dirt on it before the leaves fall. Speaking of dirt, are you bringing in fresh dirt or digging some out of your yard? Looks like you will need a yard or two or… (http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-surprised.gif)

Probably a combination. There’s a pile in one corner of the yard that I dug out when the above ground pool went in. (30 some years ago, where Hesperus is now) I’ll mix some bags of planting medium in with that to loosen it up. I still need to put the side sills on.
Posted an update in the “Articles” section.
If you keep going out like that you will have a subway (not the food chain) (http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-tongue-out.gif)
Ken, I will be interested to see how this system works out, with the plastic mesh. After seeing your work here, and looking at the cost of the plastic mesh, lumber, etc. I might do something like this as well.

You and me both. It’s a little more involved and a lot more work than my last 2 layouts, but if it survives the winters around here, I’ll be satisfied.

Yes, this looks very good. I’m of the mind that almost any build method is good for 2 years. After that…well, it always seems to be harder than you originally thought it would be to get it back in shape.
Having said that, your construction looks like it will stand the test of time, and I’m re-thinking that maybe my elevated section might benefit using similar methods.
Today’s Update:
Got the shelving up and a hole cut in the wall.
