Rainbows in the Lehigh Valley Gorge

[TMo]

Here's a shot of the "edge ballast" after a night for the glue to set up and the vacuum to be employed.  Just makes it a lot easier to dress the ties after you do this step.  I've been able to spend some time doing the final ballasting on about 10 feet of track.  Unfortunately, I'm going to get decent at it and then I'll never have to ballast another piece of track!

   

I do plan on getting back to that backdrop next week, so I'll be able to show some progress (I hope).
