Hi,
While we await the big news, I thought I'd share a few more photos from my layout, the Grand Funk Line. The first photos are my version of the USS Abraham Lincoln (c. 1898) in the Barbary Coast of the city of America, preparing to set sail in search of a sea monster. I'm not really a shipbuilder. This was a plastic model that I picked up at a rummage sale and it had no instructions, so I just kind of winged it with the rigging.

The Nautilus was also preparing to chase the monster. But the sea monster did not sink the Nautilus, instead Nemo captured the monster and took it around the country by railBigGrin . The photo of the Nautilus is difficult to focus because it is in an underground grotto on my layout.

Hi Jase,

You've only teased a tiny bit of your layout (and that part looks great) so share some wider angle views, please.

Best regards,

Mark
