Pictures from MoW (Maintenance of Way) Department. The exchange of ballasting moves forward and will soon be completed on "Mill Street"-section. Gray Mainline Mix in the center and from the local Pet Store som Chinchilla gravel.
There are also some work on landscape in the adjacent section "Muddy Creek". A nice guy gave me an Noch Grass Master 2.0 for Christmas...
To the right are the example of the not so bright idea to store my freighthouse on the Muddy Creek pond some weeks :(

Basement progress
A big step
forward in the basement, the Junction, a non-scenic module that make the
module setup to an out and back with the Staging Yard to the end point and
Crawford Valley and Hawks Plain in the loop
The
location are somewhere West of Chicago between the lines to Twin City and
Denver on a small branchline sometimes
used to re-route the ”big trains”
A small corner module
The Junction with a non scenic part (grey) and the closest part that will get som landscape and a bridge as scenic divider to hide the outer part of the world.
The trains are rolling. A wiew from Mill Street.
But there are still a lot work, another corner module and to connect the loop. And a lot of maintenance after more than year not running...

Eighty years Zephyr...
"I trust that everyone realizes that today is a special day in CB&Q history. Eighty years ago, on May 26, 1934, the three car Burlington Zephyr (later, the Pioneer Zephyr) made it's historic dawn to dusk run from Denver, Co to the Chicago's Century of Progress exhibition, covering the 1015 miles in just over 13 hours at an average speed of 77.6 mph. That day, 80 years ago, changed railroad passenger service in America and certainly changed passenger service on the Chicago Burlington and Quincy from that point on. Happy Anniversary, Pioneer Zephyr."
