BLR - LIGHTING LGB PASSENGER CARS

 Was just into Maritime Hobbies and Crafts in Halifax NS and gave them my two LGB Yellow passenger cars, and a Yellow LGB Combine car to have lighting put into them. They are going to use LED Strip lighting and wire it to a 9 volt battery with a on and off switch.This work is being done by Greg and I am really looking forward to them. It certainly will change the appearance of these cars and I will be able to get some night shots with the lights on.

BLR-VISIT

Had a visit from Jason Brown and his father Dennis who was visiting from Chatam Ont. It was a very enjoyable visit and G Scale was discussed at length, ran the LGB 2-6-6-2 Mallet and the Lgb 2-6-0 # 248 Mogul. Everybody was impressed with the size of the layout in a bedroom and the detailing that has been in such a small space for G scale. Jason has just bought a new home in Sackville NS and has a new G Scale layout in his backyard, from the pictures on his web site, it sure looks great, I cannot wait to see it later this summer. Wife calling gut to go bye for now
