I have watched this in a downpour flood condition and the roof under the deck does not really drain that much water. All ground is at a slope and only the roadbed would hold it back. If it does i will simply cut and install drainage, easy nuf...thanks for the heads up though! It is a mild concern in the back of my mind |

WOW! I'm baaacK.
I hope I rememebr how to post some pics, Finally back outside and frantically trying to prep for the hosting of my 1st club meeting next week!
Noah (6) had a great idea to take some pics while he run his Sante Fe for the 1st time this year, I hand him the camera and said go for it!
I took this one this afternoon.... 1st track laid in over a year outside and we're finally North of the steps to Paradise Lake....
If you go back to the beginning of this HUGE book of a post, you should see it from the beginning = "10 year plan" in 4
I hope

Heh, I know how you feel John. I volunteered to do a class on garden railroading as part of our community education program in June. That means I gotta get a lot done to be ready for my class!!! |

Congrats John on a nice article, great read. I only wish I had read it earlier as I drove down to Carlyle from the Indianapolis area last weekend to attend your Gateway Winter Meet (my first but not my last). You guys put on a good show. Assume you were there.
I have enjoyed this thread on your progress. Continue to keep us posted. Just wish I had your ambition.
