A quick posting of what's happening in my corner of the world for those who are my friends that are following along.
It looks more and more like my mother's house will be ours. It still needs to be put in the trust before the estate is finallized. Once done, the land grant for building a new LARGER class A railway may go forward and plans will be drawn up. If mom's house does not happen, there will still be a house in the works out in the country, either here or in GA. That is, with NO HOA and HOA nazis to tell me what I can and can not do

Right now I am in the process of thinning out the LGB Euro collection to be taken and traded for some of the LGB 18000 series curve and 4/5 foot sections. Also today, the last of my 18000 series LGB switches have arrived. So add 12 new large turnouts into the mix for future plans. I am going to save out of the Euro collection my camo. painted cars, my 2-10-2, the 0-8-0 and one of the 2-6-2s to be painted over to camo for my WWII stuff. I have a good friend that lives here from Belgium who is a real train nut like us, but who also models WWII stuff. so look in the future for the old DRG ammo, troop and misc. war trains to be run on my layout while Johnny comes over to run.
Yep, all is starting to unfold as I had forseen it, just wish the house requirement didn't need to come about because of a loss of a parent, of which today would have been Mom's B-day

Well, something good will be coming out of this and someday a new 300 foot plus mainline. So that's about it for now. Just had to keep all informed and now I need to get back to boxing up all this Euro stuff for sale/trade, but things are now progressing
