Tues 11-8

Today the professional Mall artist decorated our snow banks.  They look fantastic!  I will post pictures tomorrow. (Sorry, I thought I had taken some).  Mike tested and improved the Interactive signs,  We tested on the Circus loop as Scott was transforming the Mall Christmas tree on the Lionel loop into a 1950's retro style complete with big colored bulbs! We test ran trains and neatened up the Control Center.  The Mall was installing the white 'picket' fence around the edge of the layout as I was leaving.  Tiny brought back in the padding for the floor of the control area which he provided last year.  It makes it very comfortable to stand on.  Mac, Walter, and I played with the lights and wiring as Carl was working with Keith & Kevin to finish up items for tomorrow when the General Growth Properties Executives are stopping by to see the display. Rich Young stopped by and provided us with a transformer which we needed.  Also Rich and a friend  will work an "off schedule" in the evening hours.  If anyone else would also like to setup their own hours, No Problem, just let us know what works best for your convenience. Dennis Farrell stopped by and he signed up for Tuesday evenings which we appreciate.  We are also starting to run more trains, here is short video from earlier today - Click here:  (Notice how well Paul's G scale Flag is blowing in the wind!).  He added lots of People, details and cars yesterday to the layout. We are shaping up and looking very good,  Thanks to lots of good help and support.  Thank you, please keep it rolling strong.
