It's going pretty steady now that classes are done for the summer and I've got some nice internship money coming in. I'll try and do a pretty...
Yea, weird that no one is commenting on progress. Kind of an annoying thing, people didn't really comment on my layout progress either, dunno why....
Well, the Cucumber & Vine is not dead yet! I had to pack it up for a little while while college was taking all my time. But now its summertime,...
HA! I love it! Never thought I'd see xkcd talk about trains. But awesome! Especially with a little fight club reference in there.
I bought the Digitrax Zephyr back in the day (ehh, five years ago?) and used it somewhat on an HO layout, and it worked great. Pretty cheap,...
That's awesome chessie! I'm grew up very near there. So yea, I'm pretty familiar with Mt Olive Pickles and Cates Pickles (or whatever it is...
Progress! [IMG] Yay progress! FINALLY got some track down, nothing permanent yet, I want to wait until my handlaying stuff gets here, as soon as...
In laying down the layout from xtrkcad, I realized it would be way easier, and more accurate, as I'm planning on handlaying some track, to just...

Well, headed out to the local hobby shop, and got an already opened box of woodland scenics mold-a-scene plaster to use for leveling out the...
