Blogging my MRH Memorial Day to Labor Day Challenge REDUX (with new and improved title)

So here we are, just starting the Second Annual MRH Memorial Day to Labor Day Challenge.  You can find the opening thread here.  SIne I jumped in last year, I decided to do it again this year.  Being a good, government employed process guy, I looked over last year's thread.  Here's what I planned to do then:

ICG and Milwaukee Road 86 foot auto parts boxcars

  My friend and fellow MRH member Greg D. has decided that he will model the automobile assembly plant on his St. Louis area model railroad. His line will serve few, but big industries along the route. The acquisitions of 60 foot and 86 foot auto boxcars has begun and we found certain road names lacking. Here is the story of how we fixed  that...for at least the first 5 cars.

AT LAST!

PROGRESS!! The railroad is coming along with the bulk of the work almost finished. I started out by laying out sub-roadbed of luan on which paper templates of the trackplan were laid out and taped down to check the fit. After that, center lines and outlines of the track were drawn with magic marker so cuts, where necessary, could be made before firmly affixing it to wood risers at 2 inches in height to provide elevation relief where wanted.

Two On30 Critter Builds

With summer out door projects going full bore I decided I'd need an indoor project for when it rains. Not that I don't have enough indoor projects on the "Honey Do" list, I just need to do some modeling. I figure let the "SWMBO" scream all she wants, I'm modeling today.

Progress report on Micro Engineering bridge project.....finally some scenery too

It's not much scenery, just stark white plaster, but since scenery is my favorite part of the hobby, anything is better than nothing. I finally made enough progress on my 210 ft. ME Tall Steel Viaduct that I feel I can post some shots. Took me forever to get this far.....
