More trains

As I was preparing to write this blog post by brewing up some green tea, I heard the sound of a train horn. I live in a small town dominated by the railroad tracks. Two sets in fact. This is actually music to the ears of someone like me. However, a few weeks ago, about 1:00 a.m. I heard a train horn. Moving up the grade into town. Then in a little while (after falling back asleep) I heard another. Then another. Then later some more. Later that morning, you guessed it! Another train. It seemed like the whole railroad world had woken up and decided to come through my town. I have not noticed the same frequency since. Last post we were writing about someone asking me “Why so many trains?” I wish I had someone to ask that question of now myself. “Why so many trains?” ”Why so early in the morning?” I may never know. Back to The Omega Scale Railway. As of this post we are working on window framing and how to fabricate it. It is a slow process but we want something that looks as sharp as we can make it.
