Good Morning! My hand is much better, so I will go back to putting a few rows of shingles onto the roof of the engine house. Promise I won´t overdo this time - just 2 or three rows. I don´t have enough shingles for more, and I kind of shun away from cutting more shingles, as this was most likely the cause for my suffering. Today´s mail brought my order of lumber. I now have sufficient stuff on hand for quite a few buildings, including making my own windows. This will take me well through Summer and maybe even deep into Fall. I am not really happy with the layout. There are a few spots where it´s giving me a headache. Though no derailments, there is a spot where the car uncouples. Now this maybe the car (I only have one), but it could be the track, as well. Adding to that, I was way too generous with the ballast. I wish I could do it all over again, but I am afraid if a take it down, I will lose a lot of track. If I should decide to take it down, I want to salvage the wharf bit in any case, as I want to stick to the theme. If I redo the layout, I will give up the wye, leaving more room for Petra to move. And I will definitively hand-lay my track! Instead of the wye, I´d go for a small turntable... Anyway, befor e I take that decision, I´ll continue with my buildings! Have a great day!
