A big like on the look of the " alley " area Dave. 🤓

If the  "  sloppy work version "  rail line isn't going to be a heavily traveled track , I could see the grass and low growing vegetation growing up to the rails here and there with a shallow looking ditch along the tracks.           Maybe some higher vegetation in spots.

All in all this is a really nice area that you have been developing on your layout sir.

Hi Dallas, I've got some tall grass clumps to add at some point. This side of the layout was against the wall in the past. Now it's out in the open for all my sins to show.

Dave , the Hebrew word for " sins " is hhatah meaning  OFF THE MARK . 

........looking at your layout developmental skills....well I don't think anything looks "  off the mark ".

Jim, what's the function of the two green circuit boards?  My new WTIU is scheduled for deliver today.   Glad yours is working flawlessly!   I hope that I will enjoy the same happiness after I wire in the new system.  

Cheers, Dave

Dave thank you for asking the question! I still have to get my layout up and wired but it is good to know what I am going into!

PSX-AC electronic circuit breakers.

The nice thing about the PSX series is both the speed of sensing a short VS load and the adjustable setting for different scenarios as far as trip current rating.

Jim thanks for answering Dave's question! Your full of information most of us can learn from. Thank you again!

Today I put the finishing touches on my gas station.

My 2 sons Ryan & Parker installed my train cabinet, and I put most of my Burlington cabooses in it.

Ok Dave now I am totally jealous! I did not know you were such a big Burlington fan! I guess I need to pay more attention! 😆

Mike, I used those on my layout as well.  They certainly break the circuit quickly!
