More puff ball tree questions
Having in recent months made up a few hundred puff ball trees using Micro Mark's black fiber and Woodland Scenics turf materials, I'm now debating as to the best method to apply the trees to my layout. I have already put down the base ground material on the surface, but am not sure what to use to attach the balls to the surface. I have used 3M's #77 spray adhesive to create the balls, but I'm not comfortable trying to spray each puff ball as I go in the "planting" process ( very messy and smelly).

First Bath Drill Local Freight Train Video and Blog
I made a blog post that includes a video of the operation of the 1st Bath Drill on my Erie Lackawanna theme layout. The blog has examples of the train consists and switches lists that I make in MS Excell. These have only the information for the switching operation. These are based on my experience as a BNSF yardmaster and Trainmaster.
