Progress Report 08.31.11

Construction crews have been making progress.  Although crews haven't been exactly quick in their construction, management is happy to report as of early this morning, construction is completed in Peoria.

This evening a test train ran to find the track acceptable.  Shortly after the test train departed, the company photographer rolled into town to grab the following shots:

After visiting numerous other blogs, I have been inspired to add some features including roster, operations, layout tour, and quick specs.  The various additions will be brought online over the next month or two.
