Went up there today for a look. It looks great Steve, you have done a super job so far. How are the rails and ties holding out? Ready for another order? |

We will have enough to finish the passing siding. Would like to have more to finish the rest of the way up and also install a new siding on the inner loop for pulling off during run days. We would need more frogs and switches for that.

Charlie was the only one that landed on the ground, the F-7, 777, and the American had no issues. Must have been operator error!
