a late update ... On wednesday I finished ballasting the mainline as well as inserted the switchs I had ordered. I also ordered the buildings for the layout as well We're still here to finish out my contact with maintaining the condos, but will move when all are sold. AS far as the Association goes ....(can't be written in this forum  ) Nope just different idiots now. If you ever hear of an Association that is homeowner friendly and train acceptable, I'd like to hear about this non-exsistant thing  Rocky |
