Rock City Railroad News!
January 1999
Hello, and welcome to 1999. I've been working on the railroad trying to get it back up and running. I tried to get it ready for Thanksgiving, then for Christmas, all to no avail. It was too much work. Now I've finally got the HO and N running again, but the N needs work tweaking the track to stop derailments. I've been hitting a few swap meets and getting little goodies, but for now, everything is under the layout in boxes. I just finished the Photo tours on this website, and just finished a paint rack for my model paints. This was designed out of plywood, with all shelves easily visable, and was built compact so as to fit under a small section of the layout.
I was hoping to get more work done over the Holidays, but due to the big New Year's party we threw, I was busy all the time. I did get some foam, molds, and instructions to make foam mountains, and am getting read to start "foaming." As the layout is all cardboard and plywood now, the mountains should make a big difference. stay tuned.
