    Finally got most of my tracklayed and nailed down, still have a few nails and some ties to add to fill in the gaps. I used code 83 and 100 but it seemed to do good and I tested everything and it was all smooth transition. This is a layout based off the Springmaid Line in Lancaster, Chester, and Richburg, SC. The railroad isn't what it use to be with Springs Mills no longer around but it stays busy Mon-Fri. I thought to use this line as my first layout before I do my big New England based layout. This line was by my former college so I have a lot of knowledge of the buildings and railcars.

    I have two industires on the line, ThyssenKrupp and Gerdau Ameristeel. I plan to add a third in ether a ADM plant or the Circle S Feed Mill. I have included the trackwork and a rough drawing of the locations of the buildings and plan. I will do the wiring this week and hopefully ballast this weekend or next week. Feedback and comments welcomed.
