I was down in the basement tonight staring at my fascia.   It was pretty easy to put up.   I used the standard 1/8 masonite, mounted smooth side out.   The color was easy enough since I matched the local Free-mo standards (my layout is built to Free-mo height standards so I can use my freemo module as part of the layout).   But I mounted it with bright silver screws.   Something I just happen to have on hand.   

I sat there and looked at it.   Should I putty over them and then touch up the paint.   Uggh.   When do I get to the trains?

Then I thought - if thats what someone complains about when they operate my layout, then I'm in pretty good shape.   I got metal wheels to exchange.   I got couplers to upgrade.   Cars to weight.  The list is endless.

Its time to pick my battles and keep moving forward.   There is too much information on the internet.  Too many distractions to divert my modeling time toward something that won't make my operations any better.

I think Tony Koester mentioned something about this in his Design or Operations book.  I should dig that up and paste it on the entrance to the layout room.
