Survey yards have laid out lower Blackhawk yard and I've graded the transition up to lower Blackhawk yard (pictures of both of these). As I grade lower Blackhawk yard, I'll put in the industries on the upper track (the status drawing shows some of what I'm currently thinking. My goal here for this week is to get the ties in on the yard transition and start spiking.
The other big news is that I've got my first set of brass for assembling engines. I've started turning the wheel sets into drivers and trying to fold up the brass frames to fit the Flea motors into them. My goal for this week is to finish putting the frames together and start soldering the cylinder blocks into position so that I can fit the rods.
