Jeffery: Speaking of structure projects (and having a lot of in-progress projects), I just received some structure kits in the mail to work on. One is a Pikestuff single-stall enginehouse, which is in the Kitbasher series, meaning I'll have to cut the door and window openings myself... Didn't know that when I ordered the kit! It should be a fun project though!The other is a IHC cement plant, which by the way is NOT the same as the Faller one, to my knowledge. They have the same design, but the IHC one comes assembled and is a total snap-together kit. It looks like the $4.99 that it cost... But it will be a good kit to try my hand at super-detailing and kitbashing. The current cement plant location in New Poland has the track right next to a steep embankment with the mainline on top, so I'll have to modify the loading area to fit. I'll keep you posted with photos and such.Also in the order was 25 Caboose Hobbies ground throws, which I will install on every turnout on the layout. This should seriously reduce derailments, which will be very nice... I've already installed one, and shortly I'll be headed into the basement to do some more. And while on the subject of lots of projects, I still have several ones in progress, including the yard, three water areas, and a scratchbuilt intermodal flat based on the Southern Railway's flats built from surplus 50-foot boxcars.
