Hey all
Just updating my progress on the Roarin Elgin.
I've already surpassed my location on the MK I version,
I now have track laid from Forest Park to the west side of Villa Park IL.or 7-8 miles of track, about the halfway point from FP to Wheaton.
I have installed the mainline loop at Forest Park(until you hit end of track you can't tell that the mains don't actually connect)and all sidings and crossings to that point.
BTW personal to Tim, this now means I'm also at a point where I can install those power poles and let you know how they work.

Great news, Gary! Hope you have no problems with the poles. If you do, just give me a ring! Funny thing, tho, I was just going to mail you to see how you were doing on MkII!Cheers!Tim

Tim
The poles are in at various locales on the route and I've had no problems.
I don't wan't to give you the go ahead and upload yet until I've put a few more in and tested them a bit more.
BTW nice job both of the newest hacks I'm going to need reskin permission on them.
The wife found a book on the CA&E at the library of course up to this point the only photos I'd found were the one you did for me found out in this book the CA&E had 4(2 offset 1 center 1 no cupola) so I've got some skining to do
