We had only two railroaders show up today.

Jordan Osborn ran a Westbound UP mixed freight train 5 laps on Track 2 led by UP AC6000 7510

We also installed Clipboard Progress Report Sheets at 6 locations.
Three are shown here at Kedzie Avenue, California Avenue Yard, and Union Station.

Three more are shown here in the South Power District.
One is for the Western Avenue Buildup, the other for UP Global 1 and finally one more for improvements at Geneva Station.

Today wasn't really a tran day, but it was very much related since all my landscape materials would be held in this new cabinet which my brother, Bill, dropped off from work today.

Cleared out the room to make room for the new cabinet.

I added a horizontal piece to even out the back support.

Here's the cabinet ready to adjust the shelving.

Cabinet installed.

Cabinet filled.
