The Chama report

I thought I’d give a quick update on the Chama project.

Structurally the coal tower is complete. All the framing timbers (most models fudge the timbers. if you look you will see that there are thick round posts and a cross beam in 2 corners) are completed. The building and pully house are complete. What remains are the fiddely bits, the skiff tracks and bucket, the under track dump and conveyor and the coal chute. We are planning to release it at the Springfield show.

More soon.

Thom, I am really looking forward to that coaling tower! Just building a new yard on the J&RG and it will fit in perfectly!
