QUOTE: The bump is to bump up the topic so you guys dont have to look for it
That's a good idea- I have been busy today- i put up a shelf on the layout that's about 4" lower than the layout and this get's my entire control panel off the layout so there will be room to double track the mainline. When i expand i'm going to try to include staging- 3 or 4 tracks would be nice- 1 for the city of new orleans, 1 for an IC grain train, one for an IC intermodal tran, and maybe 1 for a IC or BNSF coal train. I would add 12" to the back of the layout (behind the backdrop) and have a few tracks there- and i'd have to leave about 2' at the end so i could curve a few of the tracks. If i do incorporate staging my intermodal yard will be much smaller than i planned. (but that's ok)

Dingoix, the train that just went through had a stUPid engine on it but the train was good since the stUPid engine is now CRIX and has a line through the union pacific on the sides.

congrats on 1000 posts waltersrails, The illinois central Ry. is doing good. the roster includes- U33C #5056, GP38-2 in sante fe colors which the ICry. purchased from BNSF and hopefully next week a pair of GP38-2's which will be painted DEATH STAR. Then we need freight cars. Bad. We don't make much money as we have less than 20 freight cars. also I'm starting to think about eventually getting maybe a KATO SD90MAC to be painted IC death star. I might get a few KATO AC4400's in addition to Atlas DASH 8's but who knows. The nice thing about the DASH 8's is the headlight is on the cab so theres more room for the IC logo on the front. I'd really like to have more EMD motive power then GE's.
