Thanks, BigRed.

Yeah, when it rains it pours.

Railmodel Journal also printed my layout article in their latest issue, and my newest DVD on DCC is shipping.

Time to get crackin' on the layout, with all these eyes a watching ... [:I]

Congratulations, Joe. I've visited the Siskiyou line a couple of times and am really taken with admiration for your layout. Actually, NMRA could just keep it up there permanently!

Ken, glad you liked it.

I will need to update the Coos Bay Hauler follow-a-train run one of these days since the layout is getting more scenery bit by bit.

I'll have no excuse to build more scenery here soon when I start doing volume 4 of the Siskyou Line series on how I do my scenery. [;)]

It will be. When his month is over, the site goes into the archive where it can be visited any time.
