I have been wanting to lay some outside track for a year or so now and finally with some prodding and help from my good friend RJ the process has started. I decided to lay a loop around the pool until I can properly prep the ground for the main layout in the garden/yard.
Yes, it is winter here in Georgia and finally the leaves are all down but, who wants to clean off the pool liner when they could be laying track instead.
Rj did most of the work and took all of the pictures. We started working in the sun and had a fire going in the outside fire pot. Yea, I know it is in Georgia but to us 30*F is cold.
So, we got about 75% completed of the basic loop and my wife and I should finish it up on Sunday. I will install one turn out so I can run a spur under the porch and have outside storage for the train. I will have to figure an in closed storage that I can put it a small light bulb to keep the moisture out. I really envy the S. Cal, Arizona, and Nevada guys as the humidity and minimal rain fall is really nice.
Hopefully RJ will chime in and add a bit more. More to come late Sunday
