Think now… remember what the train layout use to look like….I’ll wait…OK well here is a picture now its time for the transformation…first I need to move everything so that the transformation can take place as you can tell I have a lot of help…(shes on the phone) now that looks better…Caleb has been asking when I was going to finish it, well little man its now…now to put the turntable back in place now that wasn’t so bad…fan track is next yeah all those wires have to be run through the table and wired up…like this yeah the diesels are the most trouble free runners and I needed one to test the alignment of all the fan track and inside the roundhouse…I did move it a little to have more clearance for the addition hey wait how did that get there…oh well her name is Fufi …aint she cute um OK back to work…now that all the track is wired its time to park the motive power I also add a couple more spaces in case of the possibility of the arrival of more motive power…here is the addition in all its glory now to make a way on and off the new table… now that works…now to lay track around the new table and get back to the other…I was gonna make two bridges side by side and use the turn table as a route of traffic but that is not at all life like and I would like some realism so I decided on this FYI to go from the existing to adding the new and also moving 5 switches to accommodate the additional 15 cars from ebay…parking aka freight yard… took me every day after work till 1-2 in the morning for a week. Now we just have to populate it…oh boy!!!!
