Weekend Update for Sept. 10-12, 2021

[Paul S.]

Please update us what you've done on your model railroad this week/weekend.

This weekly thread is intended for us to post snippets about our layout/project progress, rather than be a substitute for our layout-build or project threads. Think of this topic as a mini update on what you've accomplished during the week/weekend.

The administrators/moderators will start a new update thread each Friday.

You can link from your layout-build thread or project to your posts in this thread as a part of a more extensive post there, or visa-versa (post to your build thread and link to that post when contributing to this thread).

Click on a post's #number (right-hand end of the post header) to get the URL to that particular post in your browser's address bar. Then just copy and paste.

So fellow RMRers, what have you been up to this week?

Well seeing as the Temple Texas train show is next week, I am getting the layout prepped and fine tuned for a ops session. On the SOO side I am just doing one for one swaps and some little jobs. There will be 25 box cars, 4 rock island transfer cars, east bound Cardigan transfer 4 cars and 3 65' log cars to be switched at Bell pole company. For a total 36 car spots to work.

As for the Hiawatha Elevator District, I am going to use the actual notes that our own forum member Barry wrote when he worked the area back in the day.

Nothing like a dead line to make one get stuff done.
