Congratulations! One of the biggest thrills in the hobby is seeing that train move for the first time!

Now, start laying the next 16 feet!

Ah, that wonderful feeling--! I just had to tear out a reverse loop and build an extension on the benchwork to fit in the new radius--. Just finished the benchwork, and tomorrow I'll start laying track. Isn't it a COOL feeling when you see the track going in? Think of how much fun it's going to be with the next 16'--and the next--

It is great to make progress and a good idea to get something running to give you a boost.

Keep having fun
