- Ran Gordon Yard on Jim Hertzog's Shamokin Division layout yesterday.

- Finished lettering my Green XMwa boxcar with the orange DF panel (you can have one of these cars too with decals available in the Company Store!), and hope to weather it today.

- Continued work on my "Realizing the Reading" clinic for the Valley Forge RPM Meet at the end of the month - www.phillynmra.org.

So, while I'm still complete jacked up with home remodeling and work, I did manage to squeeze in some well-spent hobby time.

Well... finally got myself motivated!! gotta keep that going if I can...
I built the 3 Reading Modeler-Bowser hoppers (and a Walters refer), Birbsboro residents are not happy with new parking meters installed in town and farmer Jones (??) is happy the cows can no longer escape since teh fence has been completed!

operated on the Michigan Southern RR last Friday, one of our Rail Gang members layouts, normal Friday get-together! Ran about 6 trains for the evening, including a RDG Extra from Louisville Yard north to staging yard off of Bellvue, Ohio.

Norm Logan, owner/operator of the Michigan Southern, is nice enough to have excellant RDG power on hand to use! Here are Alco 630 and SD45 heading down the mountain and soon into the helix... rockwork done here was by RG member Jim Tilley.
