January, 2007

Mid January, 2007, a friend of mine, Tom Vertel, came down from Chiloquin Oregon for a short visit. Tom soon proved to be an invaluable asset in laying the first track on the railroad.


We started with the center section (lower left)
 


Then added rail to each end


Nearing the other end with an extra helper
 


First rail on the engine house approach
 


Ready for ballast
 


First switch in place
 


Track 1 connected, now for track 2
 


Ballasted and tamped
 


First switch in and connected
 


Looking back toward the engine house
