Wife's visiting her dad on the wet coast, so I took the opportunity to move my 4' x 8' into the living room for the weekend. Set up a temporary double track around the outside while I do some work on my other layouts in the middle.

#1 - SOO #730 rounds one of the corners on the outside track.

#2 - my fave rolling stock, an intermountain CNWX hopper. I own five of these, although one needs a new truck and coupler.

#3 - Most recent addition to motive roster, an unnumbered UP GP18. Looks good, all wheel pickup, and runs like new. All for only $10US on eBay.

hehehe Sounds like fun! I, fortunately, am able to keep my layout in the living room. Well, I guess it's fortunate...there's no other place to put it! :)

Once I turned our living room into a table factory while my wife and son were away. The floor looked like the floor of a sawmill. But when she got home, everything was spik and span!

No no, photos taken before cleanup. I just finished now, actually, gotta pick her up later at the airport.

As for the photos, I uploaded them to my website first, then just linked to them in my posting above, using the <IMG> tag in the vB Code section.
