The weekend is over and let's see what everyone has managed to do.
I managed to do everything that I said I was going to do for a change! (hot weather made me want to stay in my cool basement)
I now have trains running (sorry, no pictures) I soldered new leads onto the track and added some jumper wires under the layout, as well as fine-tuning the track in places where cars were being fussy (derailing) I also weather the logging cars and sprinkled sawdust and some brown ground foam over them, fixing it in place with dulcote, to represent wood and bark shavings.
Finally I painted up about 20 figures and placed them on the layout.
