Sept 27 Update

Not much to report, since I have been away for most of the last two weeks.

Did pick up a few new autos to add to my collection when I was away. Need to build a town soon, so I can have a place to display some of my cars.

Also picked up two new UT4 throttles to fill out the requirements for operators. With the new arrangement, I have gone from needing four throttles to needing six. I also need to chip a few more locos to cover for the units that are out at shops getting work done.

Not sure when the next operating session will be, since the next few Monday nights have other things already booked for them.

thanks

Sept 6 Update

Here is lastest addition to the WRS. Yes, Scott I have pictures to help you. This run around was installed in Blue Spruce (on the Branchline) to allow for the BSJ Switcher to perform its work without having to go to Roseton to run around its train. As a side benefit of this project was the addition of another spur track in Blue Spruce. Developers are discussing with a few companies on building on this spur line.





This is a view from end of the line in Blue Spruce. On the right is T & M Lumber and in the background is the new area added to Blue Spruce.





Here is a picture of Junction, with the mainline in the middle and brachline in the back. The large white building is Mama's Pasta, one of the larger industries on the WRS. It recieves one or two cars per day.



Now it is time to update the train orders for the BSJ Switcher.

later
