With missing ties installed and a coat of 
camo brown Module 5 is finished and back on the layout. Hoisting this very long module into place without damaging anything on the underside was quite a challenge. It was heavy, awkward, long, and generally just a PIA. But thanks to help from my wife it is in place with no harm done. Connector #4 is on the bench ready to be built.
Another milestone. Can’t wait to see trains run.
Hey Alan, any chance of coming over to see the empire and chit-chat some??
Sure! I’ll contact you.
