The Farmhouse waits for removal
Next up is finishing removing the Farmhouse and the foam on the first board. Then I will start working on the wood for the widening of the layout.

Now for removing the Grain Elevator. I tried to save as much as I could. The track, however could not be saved as it came up when I started removing the foam.

Thanks everyone for the encouragement.
George with current layout and 18 inch curves I can't run it. It is too good of looking loco not to run. Also my BLI Centipedes look horrible going around the 18 in curves. I have known for some time I needed to upgrade the curves. The T-1 just pushed it over the edge.
Mike - I will post the track plan once I get it in a format I can post. My son made it in Scarm.
Tonight I ran what is most likely the last train on the current track plan. Below is a video of the train.

Of course the train stopped at the end of the video because the front trucks of the front loco derailed.

I’ll be following along with a lot of interest. What does your track plan look like?

TomPM don’t expect to be able to save much. More power to you if you can. I did a major demo, went Sawzall crazy and have been unable to motivate to get the replacement done.
Have a good time, thank your boy for his help and interest that should be a great motivator to each other.

Tom I think that is the first time I've seen someone de-constructing a layout on the forum. Sounds like it's been well thought out and will stop by periodically to check on your progress. Above all...have fun!!
