Chris thanks can’t wait to get started on this part of the layout. The center rail is the power the outer ones are ground. unsure how this will go but there will be a Piggyback ramp on one turnout

Worked some more on the layout yesterday after work. Finally got some grass on the newest addition. Now to add more track and sidings. 
Rick. I’m finding out working on my layout and working with Model railroading really is the best therapy for me right now I enjoy it so much and I am so relaxed while working on it.
John. It’s always a treat to be here and post stuff do you think I’ll ever leave you? You guys are stuck with me for life my friend.
