Good Afternoon Men, <br /> Just taking a break from packing up the house and thought I'd stop by for the lunch special. Thanks INCH for the great photos. They go a long way toward curing my "I Ain't got no Trains to run Blues". <br /> A note to JP, the kid is moving from NY to GA due to retirement from the FINEST Law Enforcement Agency in the country, the NYPD. We picked Lawrenceville as we have family there and we can all spend the holidays together. JP, you also hit it on the head with the severe storms in GA, I was having some concern about my train Shed ending up in someone else's yard. AND you are also right, it was a big Pain in the *** to go out to the train shed in the rain, snow, extreme cold etc. While the layout is down I am looking forward to getting my next version of the NYC up and running, this time with help from my two sons. The previous NYC&E layout was totally freelanced and more of a place to display my trains, buildings and scenery. It was a short on operation. Other than spotting a car or two at certain industries the layout did not extend beyond the shed as it had no staging capabilities. The layout was essentially four loops of track on two levels with some turnouts to feed various industries. While the layout did not have any sigficant NYC landmark scenes, I captured the big city essence using City Scene buildings from Bachman, some other large kitbashed buildings and an elevated subway track and station for my P-1000 redbirds. That's all for now, Gotta get back to work. Take care, John
