I'm starting this new thread to track the progress(pun intended) of the new garden RR I will be building. Yesterday I deceided to up my min. radius curves to 5 footers thus to allow Geeps and cars with body mount couplers. While out running the South FL hobby store gambit with Mikey G. I picked up a box of 5 footers and a few extra pieces to make the first loop. When the mail order comes with 4 footers, I'll set the 4 footers aside for the Christmas tree later this year. I also picked up a couple Bachman cars including a tank car and a Spectrum gondola that has doors that open on the sides. Quite pricey, but what the heck /DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/whistling.gif" border=0> It looked cool and can always be relettered. I've got track now to start with and the LGB 040 shown up yesterday too while I was away. During my running earlier this AM, I stopped at storage and picked up a few containers of ballast. I've got some bricks, but need a few more and something curved too

" border=0> The only thing that throws a bug in things is that it's Ms Rocky's birthday today -SO, I guess I can run to Lowes and buy her a present as well as the other things I need and get her a card on the way home. Pictures will follow as progress marches forward. Look for some later today as I plan to get started now, that is .... after I order flowers for Ms Rocky /DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/hehe.gif" border=0> Rocky
