Trains

The warm weather came just in time. We’ve had progressively warmer weather all week. Today got up to fifty-one degrees. The roadbed in the barrel all thawed out. The trains are running flawlessly.

The neighborhood kids are attracted to the trains. The trick is to keep them from roughhousing with them. They want to be giggling tunnels and to jump back and forth across the track just ahead of the train. Oh well, the trains are sturdy, and they go back on the track easily.

The upper loop is complete. That establishes where the lower track can go. The lower track will be held in place by a gravel-like roadbed. Problem is, all the roadbed I have is currently frozen solid in the barrel.
Come on warming trend.
