Hi Mike, great job! Glad, that you found a good solution for the Indian ruin. I like your method using templates for scenery! Amazing, how quick you go ahead. I believe your Model railway experience and your building skills & techniques help a lot. That is really top level! Always interesting watching your videos, thank you and Regards from Hubertus Germany
Thanks Ken and I think you are speaking of the Baldwin Centipede. I knew one of the gentlemen in the picture. His name was Fred Cave and he was the last man working at Baldwin when they closed.
Looking good Mike. I like the way you brought the tunnel portals forward from the Indian Ruins. That canyon is gonna look amazing. I can't wait for your next update.
Well that's good ideal Mike to make that peace removable so you can do scenery on it without having to bend over the track work that'll be a great back saver for you and everything else looks like it's coming along nicely like how that canyon looks with the bridges 👍👍
Dear Mike, cool to see you make those lift out scenic sections! Love the tweak of the tunnel portals moved towards the bridge section. The whole area consists of some very interesting scenic possibilities. Curious to see what kind of vignettes you’re going to add. Some maintenance of way trucks near the tunnels may add an interesting feature. Cheerio!!
Hi ya Mike. Making those two sections as lift offs is a really smart idea. The new and improved area that the Indian Ruins will sit on works better. The double tunnels leading onto double bridges, will be a grand rail fanning area. Wow, time really does fly. Just a few weeks ago you were sweating waiting for the mini split to be wired up. And now you are using it as a heater. Lol. Thanks for the update. See ya next time.
I thought i was making good progress on my layout expansion, but you're putting me to shame! I think this is the first time I've seen modern double stacks on your layout - definitely one of my favorite car types - they look good rolling over those bridges.
Mike great update. I always look forward to your updates. Enjoy the ice cream. Thanks for sharing. Have a good day.
Thanks Tommy. The dogs and us always enjoy our sunday ice cream.
Mike

Hubertus , thanks so much. I think as this one is being built it looks a little hap hazard but it is an all new way for me and seems to work.
Mike
Loved the up date. Like to see the black and white picture the wall.

Nice, looking good, Thanks for sharing.
Thank You Dave, hope you enjoy them !!
@@N-Scale I do
Thanks for sharing Mike. It's really looking good and taking shape. I'm getting a lot of ideas and inspiration for my new layout.
My ideas keep changing, at this point, as I see it grow.
Mike
@@N-Scale That's the way it is when working on a layout. I always seem to come up with new ideas as I see the layout grow and take shape.

LOL , I think we will have a cold winter here this year. Just my gut feeling.
Mike
Looking great !!
Great update Mike! (Dave).
Thanks Dave , glad to have you and hope you are well.
Mike
@@N-Scale you are welcome
Nice video Mike!
Thanks so much Manny !!!
very interesting project and informative regarding the template, thank you. :)
Thanks ,and glad to help !!
I love this guy!
Thanks K GEE
The corner with the bridges is coming along nicely. You go so fast man, I swear it was just last week when the shed was done! :)
Take care Mike.
I love working out there!!
Nicely done Mike! Added a whole lotta charm and character to the signature canyon scene!
Thanks Michael, I am getting there and seeing exactly how it will look !!!
Mike, the Indian ruins scene is going to look amazing. I also like the way you developed the S curve leading to the tunnel underneath. Great work!
Thank You John. Sometimes it is a little harder when you have things built from another layout.
Mike
Layout is looking great. What is the fur kids favorite ice cream?
Vanilla Custard
keep it up bro this software iz amazing
"I'm gonna do another one over there just because I can..." 😊👍
I guess it is MY railroad!! LOL
Looking good Mike one idea for above those tunnels would be a flat piece and you could probably make a visitor center/park for the Indian ruins
That is a thought!!

Thanks so much and the twin stacks were the first stacks and you still see them once in a while today !!
😁
Your lunch/diner sign on the wall, is it meant to say diner? Or dinner? It just made me question reality is all. Love your vids
It is off a railroad Diner
@@N-Scale see, that would never have occurred to me. I wish the younger generations had more of those train experiences. Thanks
@@drockjr No problem brother , me too and thanks for your service!!
