Thats gross...I had to start opening the bank on Friday's, I don't need to get up at 4:15, but when I'm use to waking up at 9 and now have to wake up at 645, it kinda sucks.
Sorry to hijack this thread. Go CMN Model Railroad!

For the spur its woodland scenics medium-brown then for the main it'll be woodland medium-gray blend..
I was gonna use arizona rock and mineral.. but they were a lil more expensive.. so i decided to just get woodland stuff.

Just got 11 new freight cars on eBay for 91 bucks..
Better than buying them new.. save about 150.
