Goo Morning! Yoohoo! Anybody here? (Looks around and finds the place deserted. Janie and Flo are yawning, while Cousin Vinnie fiddles around with the coffee maker). Took a day off yesterday to collect my thoughts on the future of my MRRing activities. There is no chance to get the option of continuous running in the premises we live in. We will move - that´s for sure, but the date is still written in the stars. So whatever I will do has to be portable, modular, expandable, should the day come with a little more space available for a layout. This leaves me witch some kind of a scenicked switching puzzle, in the guise of a station. After sketching up a few ideas and dismissing them again, I looked at what the late Wolfgang Dudler took for a start and adapted it a little. Add a short length of track on both sides and it can be operated. <img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/Salinas_zpsa71f5716.jpg" alt=" " /> Nothing fancy, no spectacular scenery - that all has to to came later (after the move). Track will have to be handlaid. The money I get from selling the On30 layout will cover the lumber I need for the modules, and a set of tools from Fast Track to build the turnouts. It´ll be DC again, although I wish I had the financial means to go DCC. No Blackstone C-19, no rolling stock, other than that old combine I bought together with my T-12. The idea is not yet cast in iron. I am sure the track plan needs to be worked on. Jeff - how´s your neck? I hope you feel better today! Flo, Maybe patronage will be up if you offer a free lunch for everybody coming in today - I´ll be picking up the tab! Have a happy day!
