Trip to the Hobby Shop

I made a trip to Hub Hobby Center in Richfield, MN to pick up some odds and ends of supplies. I picked up some Atlas N Code 55 Track turnouts, flex track, and rail joiners. I also grabbed some wire and a set of terminal blocks. This should make up for all the times that I left the hobby shop empty handed ... :-)

Mod-U-Rail Kits Arrive

The Woodland Scenics Mod-U-Rail kits have arrived! The contents of each module kit were pretty much the same. The straight module kit did come with some really nice Woodland Scenics catalogs, however. The brown boxes on the left side of each box are full of scenery material. The white pieces on the right side of each box are the SubTerrain risers and profile boards. The foam sheets for the base and the Track-Bed for the roadbed are underneath.
