Well it has quite a few months since I last posted or even worked on the layout. After some prolonged health issues on my part as well other family members I am finally back to work. The East staging representing Missoula, Whitefish and points east is now operational. The yard may be operational although it does not go anywhere yet. Since this is staging it does not have a huge amount of clearance (about 10 inches) so I wanted to be sure it is running well be fore I put up benchwork for the Metaline Falls branch on top of it. What is not visible is a series of tortoise switch motors. These are all controlled with an NCE Switch 8. One thing my two previous layouts lacked was much staging. This layout will be different with 15 staging tracks that are at least 18 feet in length. Another new thing for me was to set up macros using the NCE Power Pro. Having used the PowerCab on my previous layout the Powerhouse was an easy transition. But this was my first time using Macros. I am really impressed at how easy and quickly those set up. Not to mention it is a whole lot easier to select one macro corresponding to the yard track number to align all turnouts for a particular track. I also just installed the ladder for the west staging yard as well. Should have more on that in a week or two. Well that is it for now.<p></p>BNGreen1970http://www.blogger.com/profile/11221889751441774112noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999475061409255342.post-12905613148408573822022-03-29T20:35:00.002-07:002022-04-01T18:07:26.780-07:00Finally Back to Building<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP7R2AeYVTYzdN-ycs-3HTnvE2i6d5p_CmeEGM3WCS-B3YMpD6wBUE8-iQtOq2sdzSturRAErLH5e3DQwZpCJvDiLJ0pvbiV8nut-vO8n-zsdVxkjttPayQxh3BhEZN3NK3KzjLiK4qbx3SKVSFJVvhsdkXAjf64pOQk7_qV5Exhx6OYaSqMOEHYJoDQ/s1120/benchwork%20sm.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="747" data-original-width="1120" height="347" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP7R2AeYVTYzdN-ycs-3HTnvE2i6d5p_CmeEGM3WCS-B3YMpD6wBUE8-iQtOq2sdzSturRAErLH5e3DQwZpCJvDiLJ0pvbiV8nut-vO8n-zsdVxkjttPayQxh3BhEZN3NK3KzjLiK4qbx3SKVSFJVvhsdkXAjf64pOQk7_qV5Exhx6OYaSqMOEHYJoDQ/w513-h347/benchwork%20sm.jpg" width="513" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p>After a couple months I am back to building. Sometimes life gets in the way of model railroading and the last couple of months have certainly been that for me. I hope to be working more regularly and posting more frequently for a while now. This pictures shows the benchwork for the staging deck. The taller legs in the middle are for support of both decks and reach to the extant of the upper deck back drop. <br /></p>BNGreen1970http://www.blogger.com/profile/11221889751441774112noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999475061409255342.post-24439246593082362382022-01-09T21:12:00.004-08:002023-03-10T17:34:26.056-08:00Update and Revised Track plan<p> It has been a busy week since the last post. I am working on building shelves underneath the layout. This should let me unpack stuff and get it out of boxes. Everything from freight cars to tools and track has been packed away since we moved here 3 years ago. Hopefully by the end of the month all that will be done and benchwork will start to go up. In the mean time I am working to finalize the track plan. Since I had uploaded a track plan last year a lot has changed. I had a chance to do track plan consult with Don Winn with the Layout Design SIG during the NMRA Virtual Convention last July. He was very helpful and several great ideas. One of the biggest changes after talking to Don was to remove the narrow peninsula that had the staging yard and Sandpoint yard. The staging got moved to still lowered deck. This compromise allowed for among other things to wider aisles and a larger minimum radius on the end of the remaining peninsula. Minimum radius is 33 inches which occurs only in the helix and at the end of peninsula or a few industrial spurs. Other locations have minimum of 40 mainline and 36 on the branch. The lower deck plan is here. Aisles are now 5 feet with only 1 pinch point the peninsula and the west wall. Only 1 switching pint ( the LP sawmill) is very close to the pinch point with mostly scenic running on both decks.<br /></p><p><br /></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh8xI3NA71jwIyBYCukF9izU5PMZx6vShqXBlE3WIIqtByJP_cNA-igUo5CtZroPWeXKIxcXgsKaWL-Foi4JYG8qjodFT8dCXyN-spcNrKdL0eAS57aEOeUoxwFH0_ZV6aiA0m-QgO96UK8IrP8tLQ92-2vBKhy9UC2Ki2Nrn3Rfi5aaYcBe8N-0QjUQA=s1172" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="867" data-original-width="1172" height="359" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh8xI3NA71jwIyBYCukF9izU5PMZx6vShqXBlE3WIIqtByJP_cNA-igUo5CtZroPWeXKIxcXgsKaWL-Foi4JYG8qjodFT8dCXyN-spcNrKdL0eAS57aEOeUoxwFH0_ZV6aiA0m-QgO96UK8IrP8tLQ92-2vBKhy9UC2Ki2Nrn3Rfi5aaYcBe8N-0QjUQA=w485-h359" width="485" /></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh8xI3NA71jwIyBYCukF9izU5PMZx6vShqXBlE3WIIqtByJP_cNA-igUo5CtZroPWeXKIxcXgsKaWL-Foi4JYG8qjodFT8dCXyN-spcNrKdL0eAS57aEOeUoxwFH0_ZV6aiA0m-QgO96UK8IrP8tLQ92-2vBKhy9UC2Ki2Nrn3Rfi5aaYcBe8N-0QjUQA=s1172" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhGXPlgjsihuznT2ALFyckdwBL_dEP_sdRHj0JxqxV8XD88eaW6pYFKm8L4y-UTwbn0zrEp69rBlkc6uyRYk8_5YmhwSwUuJ36USHJQen7dy9-HzEvxJ8GJv259FcPp6RbdVnrCcuvgabZR80JKCK9CpsZPX-b9utKHIiTrtgCpU6elmdx5CN-XBoFN7g=s1178" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a></div><div style="text-align: left;">This peninsula depicts the BN mainline between Dover Idaho and Newport Washington. This then runs down to staging to represent Spokane and points west. The around the walls portion represents the MILW Metaline Falls Branch. By the time I model in the 1970s MILW had abandoned the branch between Newport and Couer d' Alene Junction in favor of trackage rights on the BN. Then below is the 16 track staging yard. You can see 9 track are stub ended while another 7 tracks under the peninsula are on a return loop for turning trains.

It is finally ready for benchwork. One of the things I built in was a workbench and spray booth. his has been quite a project with several delays over the last year. Lumber prices and shortages wreaked havoc on the schedule as did the contractor having to quarantine his crew due to due to COVID. Followed by a back injury and an illness on my part while working on the interior. I hope to start benchwork in a couple of days. I also hope to post a new and revised track plan soon as well.

However my wife is originally from Pennsylvania. So I wanted to do a Pennsy train in honor of her. Since it is already a "fantasy" train, I thought it would also be an opportunity to do something different in terms of motive power. So here is the first piece of that. This is a Bowser AS616 and will be the only Baldwin in my fleet. I installed Tsunami 2 in it and it looks and sounds great. This is only my 2nd unit from Bowser the other being a C636 in SP&S paint and stenciled for BN. They are both nice locos and I will be buying more Bowser in the future. I really like that train phone antennae the Pennsy used. Another unique feature it allows me to have. <br /></p>BNGreen1970http://www.blogger.com/profile/11221889751441774112noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999475061409255342.post-77883602200828860082021-07-31T10:41:00.006-07:002021-08-08T20:14:04.695-07:00Autorack Side by Side<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb9Oxfy-2ys1-w0FAK-phJEvd5Y8PygRbkX-1kGa6r6M4foYlXxDHvqaYa1-KfQTBVP_35-RbZQr3_KrwmxDKRgMadF9TskPObvmHmFUTsc1F54r5PcCE0S5TgluaTb8xvNUjEb7WelYMb/s3536/020A6869crop.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="889" data-original-width="3536" height="134" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb9Oxfy-2ys1-w0FAK-phJEvd5Y8PygRbkX-1kGa6r6M4foYlXxDHvqaYa1-KfQTBVP_35-RbZQr3_KrwmxDKRgMadF9TskPObvmHmFUTsc1F54r5PcCE0S5TgluaTb8xvNUjEb7WelYMb/w536-h134/020A6869crop.jpg" width="536" /></a></div><br /> <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

<p></p><p class="MsoNormal">A couple of weeks ago I purchased a couple of Intermountain
autoracks. A couple of months ago I purchase a couple of the new Walther’s
Proto autoracks. So I thought I would do some comparison.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Firs off they are both excellent cars. Paint is crisp and
well done with clean lines.(Walthers is BN and Intermountain is the UP) All the labels and stencils on the cars is legible
and well done. I would call it a tie here. All couplers were at the proper
height and the wheels were all in gauge on the NMRA gauge. Both cars are very
free rolling and have excellent wheelsets. Weight is 6.6 oz for the Intermountain
and 8.8 for the Walthers. NMRA recommended for a 12 inch car of this size is 7 ¼
So Walthers wins there.<br /></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The sides of both cars are well done. Walthers did an
excellent job but Intermountain went above and beyond with those see through
sides. Hand brakes, roof, and underbody details are pretty comparable between
cars. I think another tie here. The ends are another story. Intermountain has
the opening doors but they seem to be pretty fragile I would not be opening them
very often. I also had some difficulty getting the one I open closed again. Intermountain
has couple cut levers and the Walthers does not. Neither have air hoses.
Because they are fixed I think Walthers has better door detail as you can see door
latches and other items that are lacking in the Intermountain cars. On the
other hand the Walthers car has a little flash the should have been cleaned up
at the bottom of the door. You might also notice some bare plastic that got
missed in painting in the photo as well. I think Intermountain did better on the river detail as well.<br /></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Over they are both excellent cars. I do think the Intermountain
is a little better car in terms of detail. One thing to keep in mind in there
is a significant price difference as well. The Walthers is MSRP of $64.98 vs
$99.99 for the Intermountain. I would point out though that I got them both from
Model Train Stuff online and paid $53.99 and $69.99 for the Intermountain.
Although I will be changing out the Walthers couplers for Kadees so there is a few bucks less difference in the end.Bottom line is they are both good cars and I will probably buy more of each in
the future. I need another dozen or so of these cars and I will probably buy both brands again.<br /></p>

</p><p class="MsoNormal">Good evening (or morning as the case may be). I had the privilege
to attend the National Model Railroad Association’s national convention last
week. Due to COVID issues the event was held virtually. I cannot say enough
about the experience. The crew in California did an amazing job with it. Especially
considering the relatively short time they had to prepare. The clinics were very
well done. Having two concurrent sessions and then breakout rooms where
attendees could interact with the presenters was nothing short of brilliant on
the part of the organizers. This is hands down the best Zoom event I have
attended over the last year. Thank you so much to the organizers. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My attendance was a last minute decision as I registered the
night before. My initial impression was that why pay for a few days of model
railroad videos similar to what I can get for free on You Tube. Boy was I
wrong. Yes, some of the layout tours were actually links to You Tube Videos. However,
the various breakout rooms that were taking place throughout the week is what
really made it for me. In addition to the breakout rooms associated with
clinics, they had rooms dedicated to other topics like layout design or particular
railroads or groups of railroads. I hopped into a few vendor sessions and
learned about some great new products. After his presentation I am definitely going
to need some Dwarvin lighting once I get building the layout and structures for
example (check them out at:<span style="color: #2b00fe;"> www.dwarvin.com</span>/). The chance to interact with the
NMRA president was a pleasure as well. I don’t know if they will do another
virtual convention like this again but if they do, I urge to sign up. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For those who are not familiar with the NMRA check out their
web site at www.nmra.org. The NMRA is the group that has established standards
for model trains. They are why an Athearn locomotive with a Soundtraxx decoders
can pull cars by Tangent or Bachmann over track made by Atlas or Micro-engineering.
But the groups is so much more than either standards or national conventions.
The NMRA is about comradery in the hobby. It is about meeting other model
railroaders in your local area or from around the world. It is about interacting
with members around the region or on your local division. It is about education
and learning about model trains and how to build, paint operating them etc. It’s
about having access to a growing library of videos or even getting access to
materials in their hardcopy library. The growing list of manufacturers and
retailers that participate in the discount program could pay for one’s
membership. Like I said check them out at <span style="color: #2b00fe;">nmra.org</span> and if you like what you see
join. Their 9 month rail pass (trial membership) for under $20 is the best deal
in model railroading.</p>

However, with the 1 to 1 scale build on the room progressing, I am trying to finalize the track plan. Thanks to those who commented on the previous incarnation I post a few months ago. I hope to post a revised track plan soon. However, in the mean time I have been experimenting with deck heights.After work today I went out to the train room and used some lumber scraps to do a mockup. The deck heights as shown are 38 and 57 inches. I am 5' 11" and will play around with these for a few days. One thing I might add is to cut some cardboard and add a fascia/valence to the upper deck to see how that impacts the lower deck. There is too much info available online so I will just add to the mix. Especially for those with multiple decks, I would be curious what heights work for you.

text-align: left;">With magnification you can see even the smallest writing is readable. I don't normally carry a magnifying glass to try to read the COTS stencils when I am running trains but it is nice to know you could. If you are able to zoom in not only are the stencils readable but they are appropriate for the individual car. For example the SPS car above was re-lubed by the SPS in Oct of 1971, It was built in September of 1949 and re tared by the SP&S in November of 1963. The NP car has similar detail. Another thing on these cars is that the have ACI labels and yellow wheel inspection dots. Perfect for my 1970s time period. That is a really nice touch you don't see a lot of manufacturers do.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWeScf2xCSbcL_3ceLM_xH8ca2rCPe_SkfytFXy-KPWhd3qDlN9zmn1i3SvZHKBx6e3nHpIxx0v-oQs9L2wF32Wfj4GvJ4kvHBmIcw-rmdf4e3wV-KGllLRcBUt4QK1mt74jhhIA9zrhkP/s1120/NP10218+ACI.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="747" data-original-width="1120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWeScf2xCSbcL_3ceLM_xH8ca2rCPe_SkfytFXy-KPWhd3qDlN9zmn1i3SvZHKBx6e3nHpIxx0v-oQs9L2wF32Wfj4GvJ4kvHBmIcw-rmdf4e3wV-KGllLRcBUt4QK1mt74jhhIA9zrhkP/s320/NP10218+ACI.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">All the wheelsets are in gauge. Three of the four couplers are at the perfect height. The B end on the NP car is slightly low on the Kadee height gauge. And I do mean slightly as you can see in the photo. They appear to be metal couplers painted a rust color.

wheel inspection dots. I found a picture of NP 102018 on the
http://www.rrpicturearchives.net web site. The picture is from 1979 as
this car is a very close match. except the model no where near as dirty.
I did not finds pics of SPS 38618 but I did find pics of other cars in
the series that looked to be a very close match to the model. From the pics I found online it looks like at least some cars from the SPS series made it into the late 90s in MOW service. Overall these are great cars for the price. The weight is the only complaint as I don't see any way to open the cars to add weight. I would recommend. Also If anyone has any ides for adding weight please leave a comment.<br /></p><p><br /></p>BNGreen1970http://www.blogger.com/profile/11221889751441774112noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999475061409255342.post-76451423084938228702021-04-28T19:45:00.001-07:002021-05-27T01:07:33.487-07:00Midwest Model Railroad Company<p> </p><p>I just received an order from Midwest Model Railroad in Independence, MO. I must say that I am impressed. I placed the order on Saturday. It was shipped that afternoon and arrived in my mailbox in Washington on Monday. It was superb service. I may have to shop there more often. By the way I purchased a couple of the new American Limited NP tank cars. some Kadee couplers and some detail parts for a couple of other projects I am working on.Check them out at https://midwestmodelrr.com/<br /></p>BNGreen1970http://www.blogger.com/profile/11221889751441774112noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999475061409255342.post-16023880985933327662021-03-06T20:31:00.001-08:002021-03-06T20:42:58.545-08:00Extruded foam Not just for scenery<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQLxujADQB2HeaSMu798J2Fs_c9X-U8JH_A7jo3B6iuq22ri2ldjcL6_mkgjhG4oDG_aPH6uVmqoLGUMAgcs0ay8N8ilWAoNzT3esRQQRDCOCQ6IcejJoX4xnr2ydnXBijR9xW2S7ZHgRZ/s1680/blue+sm.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1680" data-original-width="1120" height="458" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQLxujADQB2HeaSMu798J2Fs_c9X-U8JH_A7jo3B6iuq22ri2ldjcL6_mkgjhG4oDG_aPH6uVmqoLGUMAgcs0ay8N8ilWAoNzT3esRQQRDCOCQ6IcejJoX4xnr2ydnXBijR9xW2S7ZHgRZ/w305-h458/blue+sm.jpg" width="305" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p> <br /></p><p>We just finished the interior framing. Before we did the framing I put extruded foam insulation in between the purlons. They are 2x4s so 1 1/2 inch thick sheets fit flush. I thought it rather unusual that I was using this stuff for insulation. I though they just made this stuff for model railroad scenery. I guess you can use it for insulation too. Once that was done we built stud walls between the posts. This will let us drywall and finish the walls and ceiling in the the train room. Now we wait for the frost to come out of the ground so the electrician can run power to the building. Once the electrician is done and all inspected then its HVAC, drywall,trim, paint and flooring. </p><p><br /></p><p>Although I have been pretty busy doing the 1 to 1 scale building The UPS man brought me a nice treat yesterday. A box from Scale Trains. Got one of the brand new SD45s and and some covered hoppers. These are my first freight cars from them and they look great. Hopefully I will get some pictures and get a review posted in the next few days.<br /></p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjse7znka6HOV4KaUrdqAxMmo-Vguy9qiL1xws3A1jJpJ7f3VJeLa0OZaqVJHjpeP_goVSe4DbS7G_EXHcPtqk7-x9XqCcLny9605fTzoP5MAtlUHot-SANbReKhPGVM4U7r6mN8fZKW8hY/s1120/blue+2sm.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="747" data-original-width="1120" height="313" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjse7znka6HOV4KaUrdqAxMmo-Vguy9qiL1xws3A1jJpJ7f3VJeLa0OZaqVJHjpeP_goVSe4DbS7G_EXHcPtqk7-x9XqCcLny9605fTzoP5MAtlUHot-SANbReKhPGVM4U7r6mN8fZKW8hY/w471-h313/blue+2sm.jpg" width="471" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>BNGreen1970http://www.blogger.com/profile/11221889751441774112noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999475061409255342.post-22096156005514749752021-01-28T21:27:00.001-08:002021-01-28T21:29:01.414-08:00Concrete Pouring day.<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmZ6fd7SpQZTuHewEQIAtxtlDeugCi69kZKgGXjPFaUwniQzYqqr0Xc80myo93Zo1ug2C8PyYFmmtJJdkmZ0jC7ca87EuTZp4tfQ_QB_q17EkClWH1PdVpOa6wckJecx440gqYhFcuquZK/s1120/Concrete+1.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="747" data-original-width="1120" height="318" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmZ6fd7SpQZTuHewEQIAtxtlDeugCi69kZKgGXjPFaUwniQzYqqr0Xc80myo93Zo1ug2C8PyYFmmtJJdkmZ0jC7ca87EuTZp4tfQ_QB_q17EkClWH1PdVpOa6wckJecx440gqYhFcuquZK/w478-h318/Concrete+1.jpg" width="478" /></a></div><p></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p> </p><p>Because the building only had walk through doors and no over head doors, they had to pump the concrete in through one of the doors.

I will continue to update but not every day. Work is progressing though. Just not as fast it is primarily me working weekends for a while. Also. While the build was going on I had my camera set to time lapse so I have a frame every 5 minutes for the whole week. I plan to compile these into a video. I hope to get that up over the weekend.<br /></p>BNGreen1970http://www.blogger.com/profile/11221889751441774112noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999475061409255342.post-18022990858037679002021-01-28T21:13:00.000-08:002021-01-28T21:13:08.275-08:00Finising touches<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2dNN-kSh-f89MEuYbNn9NsxxWl5UjvorlIYzyuGFhTWmbelRnbhQQoCOsS7U5ObJ5M-r7w2LaSIpJMR20t1LUo0jWJGJfrq0G3UXc6phZ_D60GtBQae0QmEdBc3adeDEE-5GMUIN2WtZB/s2048/End+Day+6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="332" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2dNN-kSh-f89MEuYbNn9NsxxWl5UjvorlIYzyuGFhTWmbelRnbhQQoCOsS7U5ObJ5M-r7w2LaSIpJMR20t1LUo0jWJGJfrq0G3UXc6phZ_D60GtBQae0QmEdBc3adeDEE-5GMUIN2WtZB/w499-h332/End+Day+6.jpg" width="499" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Up goes the last couple pieces of trim and the shell is done.

</p><p class="MsoNormal">All in all this has been a
great experience trying recreate my railfan experiences from growing up in the
70s and 80s. Even though nothing has been built yet. Seeing the BN in the latter part of the rainbow period. The MILW
going over to a short line, the UP transitioning from a light use branch line
to bona fide main line with CP run through, then the rise of the MRL made for
some wonderful railfan memories. One of the things that I think is remarkable
is that in the merger mania of the last 50 years is the area surrounding my home town
had 3 class 1 roads and a regional at the start of 1970. In 2020 it still has 3
Class 1s and a regional as well as a short line even though all the names have
changed.For those who may be asking Bonner County Idaho had in:</p><p class="MsoNormal">1970</p><p class="MsoNormal">Great Northern transcontinental route</p><p class="MsoNormal">Northern Pacific transcontinental route</p><p class="MsoNormal">Milwaukee Road Metaline Falls branch</p><p class="MsoNormal">Spokane International mainline </p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal">2020</p><p class="MsoNormal">BNSF northern transcontinental route</p><p class="MsoNormal">Union Pacifc Spokane Subdivision Mainline to Canada</p><p class="MsoNormal">Canadian Pacific run through agreement on UP</p><p class="MsoNormal">Montana Rail Link mainline</p><p class="MsoNormal">Pend Oreille Valley shortline<br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p>

The
builder had a death in the family. So we are pushed it back again.In the mean time I have the next draft of the upper deck. This entire deck is a single town (Sandpoint Idaho) along with exposed staging on the bottom wall. I have a 24x 32 foot space and still had to leave out several rail served industries in a town of 3800 at the time I model. I tried to avoid duck unders but just could not squeeze in what I wanted without them. It is tough trying to do three railroads all approaching and leaving town from different directions. Some large industries such as the LP Planing mill were served by all three of them. Try to keep things in generally the right order made it difficult if not impossible to eliminate the duck unders entirely. I thing I will say on those is that the upper deck is at 61 inches track level. The duck unders are at 3/4 inch plywood at 60 inches in height. I had the same heights in my previous house and that seemed to work. <span style="font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Aisles are 40 to 47 inches. The only exception is in front of the NP depot where it drops to 38 inches for about a 3 foot length. If anyone is wondering nothing is on most of the left wall because that wall has a window the entry door, and the HVAC unit taking up much of it. The HVAC is on the 10 foot ceiling about in the middle of the wall. </span><!--[if gte mso 10]>

I took the day and went over to Metaline Falls and Ione to see what was left of the Milwaukee Road/Pend Oreille Valley Railroad short line. As a result I made some changes to my HO scale version of those areas. The main change was removing the POVA shops at Usk as these are interesting but to late for my era of interest. I got to see the foundation of the old engine house at Metaline Falls and added that. A few other things were rearranged in order to fit that change the track plan to a more closely math what was the arrangement of the prototype yard. Still not 100% accurate but it what I can fit in. I hope to post the upper deck track plan soon. <br /></p>BNGreen1970http://www.blogger.com/profile/11221889751441774112noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999475061409255342.post-67418841567279792052020-11-21T20:25:00.000-08:002020-11-21T20:25:19.163-08:00Delivery of material for Train Shed<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4tA4ednHA9zZAlw5RwHsRuN9vde72OOgMRwDOyquqv8z9r3BUeN_gxcCcYKyDlVHNy11vtgnjbj_fuHCqjugpFlzcGvPzaS1NZP0qxjhzg6fGi31irDNOFpzFpzRosPtFgM6c594gZguf/s1120/delivery+small.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="747" data-original-width="1120" height="343" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4tA4ednHA9zZAlw5RwHsRuN9vde72OOgMRwDOyquqv8z9r3BUeN_gxcCcYKyDlVHNy11vtgnjbj_fuHCqjugpFlzcGvPzaS1NZP0qxjhzg6fGi31irDNOFpzFpzRosPtFgM6c594gZguf/w515-h343/delivery+small.jpg" width="515" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p>They delivered the materials for my train shed the other day. For those who may be wondering the rear wheels of the truck actually came off the ground at one point. So the truck was entirely supported by the end of the tilt bed and the front wheels. This is going to be a post and beam type structure. It will be 24x44 feet. The train room will be 24x32 with the remaining 24X12 being storage. They say it will take 4 to 5 days to build once they start. The build has been rescheduled a couple of times due to weather and COVID issues with the builder's crew. They hope to start next week. They will build the main building then I will need to build the inside walls.Then there is electrical, HVAC, insulation drywall etc the I will complete. Hopefully the benchwork will start to go up by the end January. <br /></p>BNGreen1970http://www.blogger.com/profile/11221889751441774112noreply@blogger.com0
