Just (re)installed the bridge over the recently-poured Mattabesset River in my nearly-completed East Berlin scene. Still have a bit of detailing to do, but wanted to be sure everything would still run right! Enjoy!

More coming!

Thanks much for the kind words! I actually took a bunch of videos showing this local freight switching East Berlin - everything from this arrival video, through picks/sets, to leaving town. Just have to figure out how to stitch them all together and decide whether I want to do on-screen captions/descriptions, or just one narrative at the beginning. Should be pretty cool if I can figure it all out (never done it before).

In the meantime, things have been progressing pretty well on the layout, so be sure to check out the website if you get a chance.

I laughed. I cried. It moved me, Bob.    

Well done.

You can never have too much detail or too many trees!

Thanks! And here's more...

Thanks for the compliments! And in case you don't check out my website, here's a link to more video, this time showing the Valley Local doing all the switching at the end of the branch in East Berlin (basically a one-turnout layout in its own right...):

Enjoy!
