Well today was the first day since august that I turned on the lights to the layout room! I ran some loaded hoppers up to the power plant and coming up out of staging I ducked down to see the train, and im glad I did! The layout had settled were a leg had not been placed back when I moved it to screw in some risers for the top! Yikes it dipped 8 inches! So I wedged a leg under it to pick it back up! After an hour of that I ventured on my way, needless to say the loads made it and the empties are headed to the loader! I wonder if I hadn't looked if it would of just collapsed the whole thing so tomorrow ill be downstairs double checking there's no more weakened areas
Always good to do a once over when you haven't run in a while. LOL! Cannot count how many times I have sent a train through a misaligned turnout! LOL! Dan
I have boxes already for the tear down of my layout for the hopeful building of a new house but every time I try to start packing I just keep finding things to fix on the layout. ;)
I hear ya Bears... Everytime I want to start on the 2nd level of my layout... I usually end up ripping up another finished section and start over... 3 steps forward... 9 steps back! Dan
