I sent the kit to Richard at Custom Signal Systems for him to custom build with R/G targets at the measurements I needed. My single and double targets are all custom made by Richard as well. <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.customsignalsystems.com/signalassembly.htm">http://www.customsignalsystems.com/signalassembly.htm</a><!-- m --> Fantastic work at a reasonable price IMO for searchlight style signals.

This morning I finished up the vessels on the furnace kit. All that's left is the highline bridge and skip hoist.

my new Kato SD70MACs with the BNSF "Swoosh" logo arrived today. They look great. I still need to attach the detail parts, though. Digitrax decoders for them will probably be here by the weekend as well. I'll by using these two engines to pull my 12 car BNSF hopper train.

Tonight I finally got around to replacing the Digitrax Zephyr unit that was in the wiring panel with a Digitrax DCS100 Booster.
I'll be using a Astron RS-7A (13v 5/7A) power supply I had sitting around to power it.

Your wiring is so neat Shaun. I love looking at how you've organized it all. Something for others and myself to try and achieve by example.

Been awhile since I've posted updates here, so here's a big update of what's happened over the last few weeks.
03-28-2009 Thursday night and Friday I made some additions to the terrain on the lower level. First I added a small hill to the foreground at the end of the lower level, and then a hill along the backdrop at the the same spot. It really helps fill the scene I think not having all that flat space. Then moving to a right to one of the corners: I didn't like this sharp drop the hill had, so I added some terrain to give it a more gradual slope down. And the same for one the banks along the river.
