Hello all;

It's been far to long and I apologize for being away for so long. I'm back with a new computer, new plumbing (ask me about the flood sometime:eek: ), good health and ...

::drum roll::

A brand new web site for the layout!!

It's been a long haul to get it done but it's up and working.

Stop by and take a look I'd love to hear what you all think.

You can find it here
http://mysite.verizon.net/coyote97/Route66Railway/
as well as in my signature below.

I'll be looking over posts for the next few days and answering any left for me and sticking my schnoz in. I hope you all, your families and modeling are all doing well.

Till later -
Peace.

Good to have you back. Nice looking website, and it looks as if you layout, as it develops, will be "Unforgettable". :thumb: :thumb:

THAT. WEBSITE. ROCKS!!!

I build websites and can appreciate a great one when I see it, and that my friend is a great one.

Looking forward to more progress photos of the layout, it's really coming along nicely.

I built a website for a fellow modeler that oddly enough models the ATSF in Arizona about the same time frame, but it didn't come out half as nice as that one. www.trainweb.org/santafe

Keep up the great work, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Dr. Wayne;

Thank you sir, it's good to be back.

Thanks again for the compliments sir.

Peace

I like the web site, what program did you use for the track plan?

Jasbourre,

Thank you, I am glad you enjoyed it. :)

I used 3rd PlanIt to plan out and make up my track plans... you can find it at http://www.trackplanning.com/ it's not a very intuitive program... I think I spent 3 months just figuring it out but it was time well spent. I 'd never use any other program now.

Peace.

Great work and looks to be a very promising layout :)
