Good evening folks

It has been a long week. It started out with medical tests, which have now led to more upcoming tests over the next couple of weeks. I am hoping one of these we actually figure out what is going on.

I started working on the City Classic West End Market, but disaster struck when several of the pieces were knocked off the bench. One of the wall pieces has been missing since then, and the kit has been shelved. I then pulled out another City Classic kit. This one is the Main Street Café. I painted the bricks thus far.

I was running Bachmann DCC Lehigh & New England 2-8-0 Consolidation. I ran it through an hour-long break-in period because I can’t remember if I did so when I purchased it. I have been building a train behind it. The locomotive is currently handling 20 cars with ease. I am debating if I should add more.

For the weekend, the wife and I are trying to find something to do. However, this week seems to have been forgotten as all the different events and shows are taking place next weekend. It looks like we might head to the Brandywine Zoo in Wilmington, DE. My wife worked there about 20 years ago as part of Americore I think it was called. It is always fun for her to see how much things have changed. At some point we have those pesky weekend errands to run and laundry.

I want to work more on the Main Street Café. My plan is to operate the L&NE steamer again and bring out additional locomotives to run. I may even build some Accurail kits.

I hope everybody has a good evening.
