Thanks, Joe!

Bill, owner of this forum, was very responsive to the name change request - within 24 hours!

Yes, i do a bit od scratchbuilding - if I'm no building something or 3 somethings, I'm either out of the country, to sick to get up and down the steps, or my muse has departed (again....). I build, therefore I am!

A rather old steel scratchbuilt shell that I married with a Weaver drive that I obtained independently and wish that I had acquired more of when they were available.....

All of my drives are insulated and I'll be able to switch between track or overhead to operate when completed. I've done that so that I run stuff now as putting in the overhead will be one of the last things I do on this layout.
