I finally got around to finishing up the track plan version 2. Since I added to my available layout space I have more possibilities. The only correction I really feel I need to make is that of the addition of the “new” G-town yard, which was existant ca. 1948, which is when I’m modeling. See Kelly’s page on the G-town track arrangements. See, my plan was more of the 1930’s vintage, so it needs to be changed. Check the Layout section for the plans. I also attended another B&ORRHS sorting session on 11/22 – what a great time! I managed to dig up another photo on the Georgetown Branch (of a switcher in G-town) and a B&O plan for track laid in concrete. Check back soon, as I plan on posting these and other maps, diagrams, and plans.

Progress
This past weekend I purchased some more tools and supplies (plastic sheeting for walls & panels for walls) for the job. I managed to do a few things including rehanging the main door so that it swings into the rec room instead of the train room. I also corrected a small copper pipe that goes to the fridge (that was hung with nails and not brackets) that was bent and hanging. I also installed a couple more electrical outlets and switches and cleaned up the room a bit. Next up I still need to isolate and repair that water leak, put up the plastic sheeting and panel the walls. Then comes the drop ceiling. No pics, sorry.
