CNW GP9 #1518 doing all the labor.

Marcus Thorsen joins us and checks out what Rob
is getting done tonight.

Marcus setting up for the next landscaping project.

Making some more hill forms for this section.

"Let me point out something here..."

Rob Fair continues his work on the intermodal
well car fleet.

We decided to make sure all the containers have
tabs on the bottom so each container is able to be
interchangeable on any well car or with each other.

I stopped by Menard's today and found a deal on WiFi security cameras.
I couldn't pass it up. But now I need to make sure I can display the camera view on TV monitors...

Let's see...where's the manual?

Wed, Sep 25, 2024

Epic failure on the cameras.
I did some research and they are not able to cast to a TV monitor.
Dang!

Train Order Board now complete.
Time to clear the Order Board and start over
on another set of Priority Trains.

I will continue to prepare this section so it is ready 
for Marcus when he returns on Monday.

Getting read for a "clean slate".

First step after the "clean slate" is to paint the base.

Next step, add the sidewalks.

Finally, plant the grass...

...then the trees.

That little project took about an hour - start to finish.
