We are supposed to get 1-2 inches of rain and if my roof does not leak then maybe I’ll start to feel confident enough to start working on the layout again.

I WANT TO PLAY WITH TRAINS AND NOT MY ROOF!!!

The drought beens so bad its illegal to waste water testing the roof so this rain is going to be great no matter how it goes.

Anywho, I want to play with trains not my roof.

I live in Florida so I took the train from Tampa to NYC then been hopping cities up north.

The western trains are great. I’ve done the Zephyr and Empire Builder.
