Paul the new lights look great!

Well done. Nice touch; adds a greater semse of reallism to the layout.

Nothing fancy or glorious.  The coal industry suffered a slow down, a car stopped dumping. Turns out, a feeder wire decided to break. The truck was not removable, and a "from the side" shot had been done before. I decided to unbend the the two prongs holding one end of the base, fold it back and solder it from the top. Not real proud of the solder job, my hands tend to shake now. But, coal transport is now back in business.

Gene and Mike...glad you enjoyed the pics!  Thanks for the comments...just posted a similiar video of the same area on the layout in the "Picture a Day" thread...

Making progress on the girder bridge for the upper level. Wiring is done and I ballasted the whole thing.

Looking good Bob! Can you take a photo of where it is going?

Very cool  Bob! It's going to look sharp with your window display in the background.  I notice with a little work you have room to add another shelf for when you go back to buying!

Making roads and parking lots now!
