What do you like to see the most? Layout Updates, Trains Running/Operations, or Both?

Both

I like both but if I had to pick I guess it would be layout updates.

Happy Father’s Day Jason, I’m so happy for you that you have continuous running, even if it’s temporary. It’s nice to have something running while you work on the layout. Great mail call, a great mug and Star and that picture was great from Mom and Ray. Those boats and logs are going to look great at the sawmill.

His hours aren't updated. He was a State Representative the past 4 years and he didn't get re-elected. He used to be open Wed. thru Sat. before his election and when he served he could only be open on Saturdays. Both shops has their pros and cons.
