The track looks good, how wide is it, I have been working on making a 1/18 toy train......Pan-Tiger Train ..

Captain,
The rails are about 3.5 " apart, give or take. The whole piece is 6" x 46". I build it out stuff I had laying around the garage.

I think I can just set the Engine on it for looks .

Now to build a train depo...Pan-Tiger Depo..

The weather is looking bad for tomorrow. They are calling for snow tonight.

Maybe it will become warm on Saturday...

Awww and i had my work boots and shovel all polished for this!

So whats the word, Yes or no,? Too wet to tank , also too wet to work ?

May be see what happens in the AM and put the word out by 8:am ?

Also Tim what do you think about crushed lime stone for the roads? They ripped up a drive way down the street and I think I can get a few pails (4 or 5) of it.(I can ask them) The lime stone is small (the kind you put under patio stones) and will pack down with time and water.

Frank,

I am afraid of any small stone that will get caught in tracks. The other clubs told me to avoid this at all costs. I think something the consistency of sand would serve us best.

Also, The weather tomorrow is going to be terrible. Next Battleday is only 2 weeks away. See my other post in this forum.

10 / 4 ,Tim

May be we can have a feild fix day befor the next battle day, if the weather is good and we have some free time.

thanks

too bad that we couldn't take the patiostones and put a coat of mortor and then lay some of the stones in it to look like a cobblestone roads just in the village that might work and it would be more realistic

What day did you have in mind?

Couldn't you use wood cover with mortor, then use the paint roll with styrene bricks on it to give a pattern, like they do at Arizona. The PanzerPaul method. They would be lighter than stone and easier to move. Just a thought, would have to try one to see how it holds up.

I can be at the field most any day and probably John Van Oirschot also.
Just let me know when.

Wayne

I'd only be good when Captain is. My dad usually works everyday of the week it seems.

oops Easter this week end I guess no time to work on the feild.

I sould be able to pick you up monk, I will know better closed to the battle date.

It seems 14th will be bad weather too..

The 14 will be a good day , hulu's wife told him it will be bad so he cant go ...

Tim Post a floor plan on how we are going to change the feild, so we can pick it apart ..I mean coment on it ...
Also do we have room in the trailer for some more buildings, I would like to bring some new ones and leave them there.

Capt.
