I posted these pictures a week ago on the other sites and forgot to post them here to share.
A lot of the flowers have not come up yet (too early yet) here are some spring shots still a lot of bare ground but things are slowly coming to life. Sorry I put so many I can never decide on what ones to use.

Since the weather has been rainy/damp for the last week now I decided to take advantage of the dreary weather and built a structure forthe KMRR. I am pretty satisfied with the way it came out (not bad for costing nothing, I used whatever I had around) It has that backwoods feel to it. This makes my third scratchbuilt structure. Just needs some time to weather outside. I got the idea for this structure in one of the recent GR Magazines. I didnt follow the plans but rather just the structure itself. I also have a solar powered light inside. the solar panel is hidden behind the shed. The snowshoes are hung up for the winter. Next project will be an old barn and fire tower.
Looking good and of course it wouldn't be complete without the snowshoes.

You need to have an open house so i can come up and play trains.
Howdy Snowshoe; you can never have too many pictures. Good stuff.
Have fun, Rob
Well done.

Impossible to have too many pictures. Looking great! Spring is special with everything turning green and flowering. Looking forward to future updates. Jack
The KMRR now has limited passenger service thanks to their new purchase. The Bubby L engine I got for 39.99 at Ridge Rd. I know its not the best but for that price I had nothing to loose. So far it is not a bad loco. Better then my Big Hauler. The sound and smoke are much better as well. The biggest difference is this engine is lighter then the big hauler. The front trucks stay on the track as well. Eventually this engine will get a make over but not for a while. Here are some spring pictures
this shot has too much sunlight in itbut I put it on becasue of the flowers. They are bluets, they grow wild in the woods in my area and one of my faverite flowers.
