Conrail SD40-2 just arrived today, it's needs some new parts but will be a great addition to the layout very soon!
New addition to the VVRR. This SD40-2 From conrail will be the new backwork horse in the future on the layout. It needs some work but soon it'll be pulled long freight for the Virtual Valley Railroad!

The gravel lot around the switch tower is finished! The next steps are to fill the empty areas around the gravel with grass and then wire up the light inside the tower.

Got more work done on the gravel lot. Soon, this whole corner will be a gravel lot! And then it'll be time to lay a road and put ballast around the track.

A wooden extension framework screwed onto the upper deck.
Green foam covers the upper deck, waiting for track and scenery
Added an extension onto the upper level of my fledgling layout #modelrailroader #modelrailroading #nscale
While I have no desktop it gave me time to test out other locomotives on layout. Unfortunately as cool as the big boy is my curves are too tight for it. So I've gotta replace them. Until I have money for that it's gonna just set in the box.

Surprisingly, a #modelrailroader spends less time accurately describing the parts than carefully installing one. Which makes diagnosing an electrical issue difficult. Inaccurate nomenclature just doesn't help. #modelrailway #modelrailroad
Progress on the Porter Forney. The deck is now secure and it sits level. Electronics are next .. #On30 #modelrailroading #modelrailway #modeltrains #modelrailroader #narrowgauge #forney
