Good Afternoon Gang! Hey, I got one of my medals back! Where is the rest of them? Another drab day, with unpleasant weather. I did not touch my plan again, there is nothing to be done with it for the moment. Went to my friend´s place and spent a couple of hours with him, before I got some respiratory problems again. Not of the kind I had recently, it felt more like asthma. Must be his cat I am allergic to [:O]. Fortunately, his cat never goes into his basement, so I won´t have a problem down there when Lothar and I will do some work on my new layout. He has taken down his old Marklin layout and put up a big workbench instead [tup]. He´ll be building a new layout once his youngest son moves out. Ken - I looked into HO scale, but found that building that On 2 1/2 gauge layout is much cheaper and easier to do for me. Thee are lots of cheap materials around that you can use in the bigger scale, but not for HO anymore. O scale is ideal for scratchbuilding in the best sense of the word. My friend has quite a number of HO scale drives I can use to build my own locos (critters), using styrene sheets. If my soldering skills were any better, I´d even use brass... The new layout will take quite some time until completion, but I am in no hurry. Prayers for all in need and a belated [bday] to USMC.
