Progress Report 09.02.12

Carrie Ave Shops has been busy working on the locomotive fleet.  Late this afternoon, they completed the last locomotive.  Clearing inspection, the locomotives were consisted and assigned a train for service.

A parking lot and road was created for the station at LaSalle, a new road crossing was added at Peoria, city streets and a neighborhood road were added at Bureau, and a small trailer park community was added at Bureau Junction.

Later in the evening, I went back and added some hillside in Peoria, Bureau Junction and Ottawa.  I also added an access road to the station and engine service facility at Ottawa.
