| Gold Spike Ceremony. . . |
The 14th day of June, 2008 was my "Gold Spike"
ceremony for the outdoor 7.5" gauge Timber Creek
Railroad The visitor Locomotives consisted of Two
GP-9's, one was an SP and the other was a WP; one
Southern Pacific Atlantic #3001; and my own
Timber Creek Railroad SW-1500 #1046. The actual
ceremony was after lunch and everyone
participated in driving in the Gold Spike. It
started at about 9AM and ended at about 4PM. A
good time was had by all. Pictures will be in the
TCRR outdoor RR album.
The GOLD SPIKE has been planted!!!!!!

track where the first switchback is located..
It's all done and ballasted.

| Road Crossing Signal |
Finally got the grade crossing signal to work.
I insulated one side of the rail to allow the
train to act as a switch to activate the signal
as it passes the drive way.

| Transfer table |
I repainted the transfer table because of a can
of black spray paint that fell from the transfer
table and was puntured when it hit a sharp corner
and sprayed the table real bad.

| Switch Stand |
I just rebuilt and painted my switch stand that
stands outside of my train building where the "O"
scale railroad is housed. It is now "lighted".
