And some more for me. Nancy & I spent a few days down in Ashland last week to see Much Ado About Nothing and Macbeth at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. If there's ever one (or more) of the Bard's plays that you've wanted to see live on stage, this is the place to do it. Their lineup changes every year, so it pays to make note of when the new season's offerings are announced. Anyway, on the way home I stopped in Roseburg to visit Mac's Tracks, a little mom & pop train store downtown. I spent a bunch there on a layout design book (which has me re-thinking priorities), magazines, and rolling stock. These came home with me: The POTB and S&NC boxcars are ready to run, save for a few detail bits to be added to the Tillamook car. Both will get some serious weathering eventually. The two Kadee cars are kits to build, and quite nice ones, too. The 50' PS-1 boxcar was used by many roads, so painting & marking that one is just a matter of obtaining a suitable decal sheet.

Some awesome scores there!!! Well done!!!
