Construction in the North Woods 
Bob is working on the installation of sub-roadbed and checking operations.
Jack is squaring the KREG joints for the new modules cut and fitted by Brian, Bob and Paul

Testing of the new modules in airconditioned workshop
The Layout room has a shelf system that accommodates the modules for up to
18' X 6' modules without their frames.
As the modules got ready for installation work moved to the garage for construction with (3) 4' sections on each side of the new 24" radius end modules which are 6’ X 30”.
Fitted with foam to support the track foam is placed into the wooden structure
Careful adjustments will allow the Woodboro and Starks Models will be displayed on the 32" depth modules. The overall size 6' by 17'.

The Center For Railroad Photography & Art has updated it's Web Site
Join us in the “Greatest Hobby” as a member of the TLMRC.
The closing of the Choo Choo Store and the Removal of the Rhinelander Club web site (RRAHOME.ORG) has required many updates on pages of the TLMRC site. We will add RRA pages from their site that reflect our friendship and cooperationto our site. This will not be an RRA home page but rather pages about the Rhinelander Railroad Association and the work of their club members. If you find links that do not work or take you to the wrong location, please let me know via Contact Us
