Single Stall Engine House Part 7
In this part I've started the roofing on the work shop portion of the engine shed and put together the stove pipe for the shop.
I used corrugated metal for the roof material, from Northwestern scale lumber. I first cut it into scale 4' x 8' sheets. The easiest way I found to do this was to score it with my hobby knife and then with a metal ruler held along the score bend the metal back and forth a few times until it breaks along the score. I used CY glue to attach the roofing material as tacky glue would not stick to the smooth metal surface very well.
Foldable legs on a module
I have built a few modules that will go in my garage, but I need to build some foldable legs that are sturdy to take abuse of taking them up and down to get the cars in.
Does someone have a diagram that you can you can post?

First scratch-built Tree
My 4 year old nephew proudly gave me some twigs he found in the grass on the way to the playground.
Those three twigs became this O scale tree.

Locomotive Shutting Down
I have searched the forums and other web sites and can't find a similar problem I am having.
Intermountain SD40-2W, with Tsunami. All was working fine for at least the last year. Did a reset on all of my locomotives to speed match them again and enter the files into decoder pro again, since i lost the computer I was using and could not transfer the files.
