<p><font face="terminal,monaco" size="3"> <font size="2">HI EVERYBODY, WE STARTED BUILDING OUR GARDEN RAILROAD BACK IN OCTOBER BEFORE THE GROUND FROOZE, WE LIVE IN CANADA ABOUT 30 KMS NORTH OF RED DEER ALBERTA.</font></font></p><p><font face="Terminal" size="2"> WHAT WE DID WAS TO RAISE THE WHOLE BED 1FT WITH LANDSCAPING TIES, BUT WE HAVE MADE IT WALK-AROUND, LIKE THE H O CAT MOUNTAIN AND SANTE FE. WE LUCKED OUT WITH FILL WHEN WE HAD THE GARAGE BASE DUG, THE EXCAVATOR DRIVER SCRAPED THE TOP SOIL OFF AND FILLED THE RAILROAD, VERY NICE.</font></p><p><font face="Terminal" size="2"> WORK HAS STOP UNTIL THE GROUND UN-FREEZES, ONE ADVANTAGE TO RAISING THE BED, IS IF YOU HAVE TO CUT THE GRASS AROUND THE LAYOUT IT DOES NOT GO EVERYWHERE.</font></p><p><font face="Terminal" size="2"> THE BENDING OVER SO FAR IS ANOTHER, AND THE GRAND KIDS GET A GREAT VIEW.</font></p><p><font face="Terminal" size="2"> WE BELONG TO THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN GARDEN RAILWAY CLUB IN CALGARY AND WE HAVE JUST BUILT A MODULAR "G" LAY-OUT, AND THE MAIN CONCERN WAS MAKING SURE THE KIDS COULD SEE IT PROPERLY. </font></p><p><font face="Terminal" size="2"> THATS IT FOR NOW, DAVE AND DEBBIE, SUNSET DEPOT.</font></p>
