Good morning,
Woke up to a chilly 81° this morning and heading for 90+. I had to turn on the AC in the train room last night but it only took 30 minutes to get it to 72°. That is the first time I have had to use it this year. I put 9 inches of insulation all around and 15 in the ceiling so it is very easy to heat and cool.
Gas is down to 3.07 but look for a sharp increase tomorrow when folks start traveling for the holiday.
I received my new passport card Monday. It only took 4 weeks so I am impressed. I did not pay the $60 fee (bribe) to have it expedited.
I did get a couple more of the heritage units this week and now the rest will be hard to acquire. I don't think they are holding the value that some originally thought, I am getting them because I decided I want them. PRR was getting boring.
I worked on the coach model I am making for the Kiski Junction and started to work on the flat car. I also got a great buy on a SD45-2 that I want to make into the Erie Lackawanna heritage locomotive. All it will need is the numbers changed.
Have a great morn of the midweek bog down.
