Thanks Blue Aster, just starting,now comes the final leveling and chicken grit. Think I,am going to name the RR the TP&TRR. THE PARADIGM of TIME RAILROAD or the TP&TCRR. THE PARADIGM & TALISMAN CREEK RAILROAD Saw a good quote online today and I changed it around to Say "one cannot really appreciate the paradigm of Time & Distance to its absolute limit unless there is no destination involved". Made me think of the name. TOM

Looking good Tom, shame the little 4 leggers aren't as good for digging out as they are for chewing. Keep the pics coming.
Cheers,

Hi Kim,

Have you heard about Siberian Huskies??
They're very good at digging;, mind you, seldom in the place one needs the digging done![;)][:)]

Thanks to all. More photos to came as I progress. Now a lot of work to do. I,am going to try to build my own structures for the RR. The abutments are my first tries at scratch building(Little off) but OK. Took measurements off internet and converted them to 1/24 scale. Used Peter Stabovitz conversions. The bridge was made from June 2003 G.R. Mag. 1/29 scale bridge. I think everyone has built this bridge. I think both 1/24&1/29 scale will look alright together? The other structures I plan on building will be 1/29. Although 1/24 is so easy to convert too. TOM
