TTFH Update
http://www.paper-tiger.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/workbench-200x200.jpg
I was asked on the model railroading forum for an update with pictures on what I was doing with the train table. I tried to make a video of the changes, but I made the mistake of trying to do …

I got my Delta Rae tickets for the Madison show! I’m so excited…. *bounce bounce* Now, if only the highways and streets of Madison didn’t defy the laws of sensible navigation. Last time I was there (like, last weekend) I …

Finally Running
Today, I have achieved a train triumph! I spent bits of the morning and afternoon and a good solid couple of hours this evening, dinking with the TTFH. I added a couple of feeder wires to the dead spot on …
Elsa vs Megatron
This weekend, Evie managed to fill her sticker chart and earn herself a new toy. Today, I needed to do some shopping, so I took AJ and Evie along with. As I was leaving, I mentioned to Tim that Evie …
