About Me
- Mark B.
- Allendale, SC
- I grew up in Wyoming, mostly living in areas served by the railroads I model. I remember standing at the window in our Cody Wyoming home, staring at night at the old Husky refinery across town. I remember the bridge across the creek and under the tracks between Powell and Cody. I remember always looking for trains as we travelled through the Wind River Canyon. And I remember my mother's last home - a mobile home in Evansville next to the Burlington mainline.

It's been a bit over nine months since I posted that the layout was coming down.
It's completely gone (has been since around March). I was able to salvage most of the track and a great deal of the benchwork. Roadbed and subroadbed went into the trash. All the structures (the pitiful few there were) are packed away, and rolling stock is sitting in the rented house in Charleston.
I've joined the Charleston Area Model Railroad Club, and manage to exercise my equipment there on occasion.
I have no idea when I'll have a new house in which to put a layout - the bad market has ours in New Jersey not selling anytime soon, it looks like.

Thank you for posting your progress. I hope you are able to get your house in New Jersy sold and I understand about the tough housing market. I enjoyed your blog for the previous layout and hope to see a new one beginning soon.
Thanks Chris!
Still no bites on the old house. We have several possibilities at the new location, but can't really take action until the old place sells.
