GEC's Layout Progress
e-paw Wrote:Looks good GEC, Thumbsup Is that the club layout? You got to talk those guys into having you put up some of that catenary up that you did such a nice job on. It'll give those pantographs something to do other than hold up the sky.

Thanks a bunch! I wish i could convince them to put up catenary. Some Reading Company catenary is VERY simple and low lying, but they don't want the hassle (that, and i'm the only guy who'd know how to work on it). I think there is one small area that i could install the catenary in, but i don't think they'll let me, since it would be RIGHT on the edge. In theory, the layout will have plastic shields to keep this area safe, but they are concerned that it would be too delicate and annoying to have to read around.

In truth, its probably better to have it up close so if there is a problem, you don't have to do crazy maneuvering to get problems fixed. But thats not going to happen anytime soon. I'm thinking i'm going to have to build a demonstration section before i convince them to come around to it.

Anyways, that Silverliner III kit is now on its way. Three Silverliner IIIs isn't bad. still thinking about what to paint it.
