BCSJ III - Trackwork in Redland - August 31, 2006

The citizens in Redland are quite happy now that those lazy bums over at Hillmovers Construction Co and the Bear Creek and South Jackson have finally gotten working on restoring their town. Trackwork is more than halfway complete at this point with only 4 more turnouts to be installed.

The rough ground has been in place for many months but its only recently that the track crews showed up. Redland still awaits a bridge over Redland Creek between north and south Redland but its anticipated that trains will be able to run again real-soon-now[tm]. Scenery is still rudimentary and is likely to remain that way until Hillmovers gets the Roberts Creek area above Redland sceniced (to avoid messy drips falling on finished scenery below). Many buildings remain to be constructed but you should be able to get a good idea of what the place will look like.

Railroad management is pleased with the prospect of being able to run trains again soon after a more than year long hiatus.

I hope you enjoy this construction update.
