Fall chores done this weekend (mostly), now I can get back in the basement to work on the layout(s).
Mocked up the engine house location for "Brandywine" end of the Chester Valley branch.

This is S scale.

Enjoy,
Hugh Sinn

Added the correct inertial filter hatch to my 1c Kato 3656. I never noticed this before when I originally worked this unit up. Simple process of painting the cannon part and applying it to the roof.

Also painted up some 50ft'ers and open hoppers waiting for the new decal releases.
