Mercer Junction Update

Thanks Dave and stay safe!

You too Malcolm!

Much as I like getting new trains, I would recommend holding off opening the doors until the April 6 date (or thereafter) when many or most states will be gradually easing off on restrictions so the country can begin "opening up" again. But I just know that in the meantime you will be working hard on the updated layout feature article (after the bike is completed, of course).

Hi Dave, good thinking about what you are doing, I agree with Allan, you really need to be safe.  My youngest son called me on I believe it was last Friday and told me his boss called him and told him he was to be confined to his house for 7 days as one of his sub-contractors called to tell them that his mom tested positive and he wanted to let all of the people know that he hadn't as of yet but wanted everyone to know about the situation.  My son says that he hasn't been around this guy, nor had he shaken his hand or had any close contact with him.  He feels fine and doesn't really expect to come down with it but you just never know.  So you really need to be careful.

Yes Dave...play it safe so one day I/ we all can make it over to your store! Which reminds me to now look up where your store is located...for future road trip....with coffee in "da saddle bags"...

Stay safe, Dave. Keep working on the bike build. Looks good.
