Hi All,

I know that I haven't posted much apart from thanking Jim for all the great updates.  I just wanted you to know that I am busy working on the railroad, upgrading the switches in the passenger terminal.  I hope to have it done in the next couple of weeks.  At this time, I am scratch building a diamond for the double crossovers in the throat of the terminal.  So far, I'm having fun and getting some great help from online friends. 

As noted earlier, I decided to work towards my NMRA AP certificates and this diamond will be the last that I will need for Civil Engineering (track building).  One switch, one crossover and the diamond, which are three of a nice selection of types of track work that you can pick from. 

I will be getting busy with ProTrak again in the next few weeks and hope to restart my monthly sessions by the end of January.  The 30th is my birthday and what better way to celebrate than with a basement full of friends!! 

I'm also very interested in getting my initial passenger train operation going and hope to add a few passenger trains on a timetable schedule.  Always fun stuff to look forward to!! 

Best, Andy
