Last week we had very heavy rain, my complete basement was flooded. So there is a lot to do - but it will also be the starting point for a new layout room.

I'm planning a two or three level layout - not sure about it yet. I'm thinking about different depths for the levels.

Do you have any recommendations or experience with depth to go where? Narrowest level at top or bottom?

Any comments highly appreciated!

Was out for a drive today along the Fraser River in Richmond BC and saw a road with a name that rang some bells.  I had been on River Road a few years ago about 10 miles west of here, but never this far east in the Queensborough area.  Came around a bend and got a pleasant surprise - a double headed tug team with a log boom looking like they are towing this old swing bridge.  Many more shots below so as to have a short first post.

Anyone have a schematic or a pin diagram for the pcb included in the Bachmann On30 rail truck? Need to know which solder pads get track power, motor, and lights wires. Model completely disassembled for painting and all wires broken and/or shorted. Its a long story.

I'm building several HO structures for our clubs modular layout. They are replacements for some modules (four 6' modules) that are showing their age after 30+ years of setting up, taking down, transporting and storage. The shells of the structures should be finished and attached to the modules before we need to setup next time. However, some of the interior details and lights may not be done.
