here is a pic of the waterfall and pond. the tiki hut is new, allways need a good place to have a drink after a long day of working on the railroad. Still have to fix all the wash outs but did have trians working today.
No trains!
Heck, I’ve got a dozen gondolas for tools, ballast, and whatever, run the work train out and go to work!
That is a pretty kwel layout in the front yard. ++
Geoff,
Sees like the rest of your trip was good.
Layout looks “normal”, but you’ll fix that.
Like TOC, I’m waiting for trains
