When in doubt. grab a hammer. 

If it moves and isn't supposed to, get a hammer

If it's broken, get a hammer

If it can't be fixed with a hammer... DUCK TAPE!

Jim,

Thanks, and I must say that is one great looking building.  Reminds me of my Army days living in a Quonset Hut !

My layout is still in the construction phase, with the benchwork just recently completed,  and is a modified plan from the following site:

 http://www.webpages.uidaho.edu/~rfrey/Logging%20Railroad.htm

It can best be described as a freelance/freestyle railroad with a rural/logging theme:

Past midnight over here in my neck of the woods - time to move the Diner to the May 2011 location.

Everybody get ready for the move!

Going to be a little longer trip this time - to a place you probably have not been before. Take a seat, relax a little and enjoy the journey!

Here is the trail leading to the new location.
