It has been a long time

 Well, it certainly has been a long time since I posted. I have been tied up with several projects, one of which was getting my layout videoed and posted top YouTube. Look at PRR-Northern Central if you want to see it in action. It took several months of scenery work and then shooting it to create a 10 minute video. Who can image it would take that long!

So, now I am trying to get back into the swing of things. 

I have asked my grandson to help install the future base of Milton.

 I installed a whole new lighting system using LED bulbs that replace fluorescents in their original housings. Also installed a video system to monitor the trains in the hidden area on the main. I am still tuning that up as I am not completely satisfied. I also have to build two new panels for that area to make the operators' jobs easier. 

 I have been working on tenders, new cars, pulling unpainted diesel models out and painting them. I have also been painting and lettering freight cars, and redoing drive systems on multiple engines. I will cover some if that in future posts. i hope to be a better correspondent for the foreseeable future.
