Guys: I am hosting a Clinchfield OP Session this next Saturday starting at
11 am. Date is April 28th at my home. If we have enough operators we should be able to run a regular summer
1975 schedule.

Some of you know that my layout has had a persistent problem - I have an angled gap over the entrance to the aisle on my layout. Due to factors unforseen the angles (each different) at each end of the bridge I needed to span this gap were more than a little weird as well.

I've had three different attempts at bridging the gap with something I could swing out of the way or remove entirely, and all three of them changed sizes on me between winter and summer, tossing my track ends off.

Frustrating.

Well, here is bridge attempt #4:

One of the structures the Great Western Railroad had in it's Loveland Colorado yard was a double spout water tank. I desperately needed  to model this for My Ho scale GW layout. I have searched for a long time looking for a wood kit that I could afford. I was very fortunate to find a complete unopened Sheepscott Scale models water tank at a local Train show last fall. It still needs the roof  which I haven't started and also it came with only 8 hoop fasteners so I have ordered a package of 99 fasteners from my LHS. Here is a photo of My progress so far..

hi to every one. 

I'm building a section for my layout. The section will represent a simple junction between two double track lines. 

First, the trackplan:

Actually, this is as I planned to buid it. In the final version, the farm is located on the other side of the mainline, and not so parallel to tracks!
