Reply to "PRR Panhandle 2.0"

Updated 3/20/2025:

I think we are finally ready for the layout tour following RPM-East 2025 this Sunday. The train room has been cleaned up, buildings moved to their locations, and cars and locomotives prepped and staged.

The photo below shows the mock-up of the Crawford's Crossing between the mills as compared to the photo of the prototype (which appears courtesy of and with the permission of the Weirton Area Museum & Cultural Center).

That elevated road between the mills will cross the 2 tracks, then curve and descend until it meets the purple paper (stand-in for Main Street).

This is the west end of the Panhandle bridge. Note the bumpers now installed on incomplete loop. Hopefully we won't need them.

Below are photos of QN Tower and Highland Avenue (yes, @luvindemtrains I have not forgotten it. That's your grandmother's house beyond the Decapod.). Again, there is a bumper on the incomplete mainline.

More when I know it. wavey
