First Tuesday of the month

Just a reminder that on the first Tuesday of each month we will have a meeting starting at 8 pm.  If you have any questions/comments/ideas this is the time to talk about  them.  We have two big projects on the go, re switching the cement plant area (which requires the DCC be shut off as feeders are attached) and building the wye.  The turntable also needs to be programmed and new tracks and industries will replace the old Miller turntable.  The 2 car float aprons will be replaced in the near future, 1 with a coal dock, probably the one in Miller as it has a long approach track.  The other one needs an ocean side type of industry, maybe a fish cannery, any ideas?   The layout needs other details such as a couple of city water towers, vehicles and lumber piles to name a couple.
With a new year starting I would reflect on our progress, congratulating everyone on the great job so far.  The scenery looks great, the facia and curtains, when finished will give our layout a professional look.  The track work continues to be improved, and many new structures have been added.  A great job by all.  Looking forward, we will soon be operating using a card car system, any ideas on this are always welcome.
I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
