All Quiet

I have not been working on the WRS this month. Or at least on the main layout. The end of August is Hillfest, a gathering of the UMG for a major operating session on the UMG layout. Last count, there are one hundred spots to place cars at industries, plus three yards.

I will be taking four modules and maybe a fifth to the show. Two of them needs only minor repairs, but two of them need to have the tracks reworked. Then there is rolling stock and buildings to check and pack.

Also I am helping with setting up the operations on the layout. We are going to try a system based on "Industry" Cards. Each spot at each Industry has its own Card, which tells what type of car is required at that spot. It should be interesting.

That is all for now, hopefully we will get back to operating on the WRS in September.

later
