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.
