Congratulations on getting to episode 100. I hate that my favorite model railroader got food poisoning, but am so grateful that you've pushed through.

Dear Mike, sorry to hear you bought the wrong piece of turkey. Hope you’ll recover soon and completely! Very much like the way you made the lower tracks accessible. The slits in the fascia look awesome now that everything is patched up and painted. Will be interesting to see how you’re gonna patch up the scenic part. Stay healthy and safe! Cheerio

I really like the facia with the holes cut to see the track/trains inside. It reminds me of the road tunnels in Zion National Park that has holes cut out of them that are up on a cliff face, you can stop and look out of them and later on you can look into them from outside the tunnel and see other cars going through. It's a really neat thing. Anyway, take care Mike.

That year is one of my favorites too so I am please that it had a new care taker, especially one as good as you. Happy April 1st and keep on trackin'!

Sorry to hear you've been ill. I think you got an awful lot done, considering that. Fascia looks very good.

I'd planned to do under layout staging and I really like the way yours turned out - great job patching.

@@N-Scale Crazy thought, perhaps, but did you ever consider painting the interior walls and ceiling of your train room a sky-color? I'm probably going to have a couple of mid-sized layouts in my train room, and was thinking of using painted backdrops. A base blue would seem to fit to tie everything together.

Aw, Mike! There's not much worse than food poisonin'! Get well soon, bud! But on the bright side your newly cut and mustered fascia looks double fine! Strangely it, somehow, makes the cityscape above it look really great (even with the "hurricane" damage)! Perhaps you can get a small tribe of fireflies to inhabit the caverns so there's at least a bit of light in there! Thanks fer postin'!
