Hope I can make it. I would love to stage something on the new jigger track at the Trestle.

Here is part of a staged shot we had on Saturday. I know the train is backing but I had to return to my post on the handcar before the return. I built this track back in April or early May just for this day. We all agreed it was perfect. By this time next year, I think I'll have another one built. Location yet undecided.

Mike,  That set off looked great.  The jigger is in the perfect spot, looks good as you approach it on the train.

Thanks Stewart. I am thinking of a spot to build another. I think it will have more than a trackside view. Could be a good surprise for next years picnic.
