Tuesday Night at the Huff and Puff

The night started out with a screeching noise, and upon some investigation, a baby racoon was found and relocated to a tree outside.  All the blocks on the main line were tested and found free of shorts. To do this one block at a time was added to the system. When it was found to be short free, we shorted it out to verify that it shut off and that the system would reset it. It didn't take long for a couple of engines to get a trial run, with Cliff and Rod cleaning track as they went.  Cattle were added to the stock yard at Hillcrest Packers, in Lincoln, and the park at Valleyview grew grass and a rod iron fence. A log ramp and logs were added to the log pond at Miller and the track on the branch was weathered.
