Work continues today on the expansion. All the yard mix ballast is now down, with the exception of just around the last two switch stand pads. The last two stands still need to be installed, and should be here by Wednesday hopefully.
All the yard mix ballast is glued down on the right hand side, as well as all the bumpers on this side are installed. Just started to work on glueing the ballast down on the left side, but ran out of time before the heat and bad air quality got me. I’ll install the remaining track bumpers on the left side soon. Tomorrow I’ll finish glueing down the ballast on the left side. Finally, some extra details were added to the yard office area of Dickinson yard, including more rusted rail and rusted joint bars.

I have been a railfan since the age of 6, and a modeler since the age of fourteen. This is my first fully (well not quite) completed model railroad. I fell in love with trains early in life, ride them when I can, have volunteered on many steam fan trips and have ridden many more steam excursion trips, have belonged to several model rr clubs, and did a stint as a brakeman/conductor on a midwest regional railroad. My layout was published in Model Railroader magazine in 2016. I hope all of you enjoy the ride here on my sites! I now have the second blog/website up for my other hobby: wargaming with Flames Of War. I have been involved in wargaming off and on since my teens......
