<p>Hi Jim, i've been very busy on the layout wife went home to Milwaukee to take care of her sister's two kids, so her sis and hubby could go to Jamica man. So i have stayed home all week on vac. I have finely started on my engine facitly. I am taking a break for some hot chili I made, then its time to cut the hole for the 90ft turntable. I started down there at 4:30 this morning. Funny i am on vac but still can't sleep past 3:00am. I hit grand crossing for about 45 mins this morning it was way to cold to sit there and I didn't want to keep running the motor. I did see one cool train it was a BNSF coal train on the CP (from power plant at Portage Wi.) it had 3 ATSF SD70's red and silver and they were very clean.He was WB and empty and hauling butt. Also saw a EB auto rack train on the CP with one GE, and on the BN there was one WB and one EB stack train. Not bad for little less then a hour.</p><p> Yesterday I stopped out there about 2:00pm caught a WB genral fre. on the BNSF with a Ferro Mex GE on it, what a awesome paint job dark green with white and then red stripes, thats the second one I have seen here in the last three weeks. While back to work, can't wait to get the turntable in.</p>
