Just had my left hand and arm done a few days ago. My right is not near as bad as my left is or was. I am now wearing a brace on it when I sleep but it probably will need surgery too. Scenery is no real issue but structures and rolling stock are. Hopefully that will change as even though I don't need many more structures for my little pike, I'm going to need at least a dozen or more Tichy wooden ore cars. I don't think RTR will do for the look and feel I want for the Black N' Blue unless someone knows of  RTR cars out there I don't. I can't afford to have them built and I'm unfortunately a lone wolf model rail. No one in the area. Maybe a mix of wood and steel will work. I do have an old Roundhouse shake the box Gorre and Daphetid kit that a dear friend gave me. I guess we shall see.

I continue to hope to get the history and why's and where of of the Black N' Blue typed up and posted in this space but simple typing is a chore right now. I'm hoping to try freeware dictation software as I can now pretty much recite the fictional history and information in my sleep! I've refined it pretty well!

Thanks for reading, more to come...
