This is the final segment of the May 2017 update tour of the BNSF Fall River Division.  Hope all have enjoyed one really great model Railroad. This was done is conjunction with Rocky Ops 2017 Thanks to all of the Host that made it possible.

Ok, not everything I do ends up in failure. Sometimes I stick with it till it works. Other times I run away screaming NOOO!!! We also see what happens when you try and lock the ol' lady out of the room.

I was requested by a modeler to share everything I know about signs. After they watched me mask my Son's name on his tablet. He was going on a trip and I wanted to make sure if some kid stole it (he is autistic and is a target), that kid (i hope it would be a kid, really) would have to hide his thieving butt to remove said signage.

No I messed up on a technique I saw somebody "talk about" before. I wanted to make sure I knew how to do it. I failed, it was hilarious. But I also shared a number of valid technique y'all might like. So check them out.

It has been almost 2 1/2 years since I have had a MR. Tore down the last one when we put our old house up for sale because we needed to get a smaller one. A bit of modeling history.

A side by side comparison of similar locomotives with dissimilar decoders.

The same operation is performed. The results are quite different.
