Post Storm
Caught this the other evening right after a light thunder shower. This is looking outside my office window, facing east.
Unfortunately, this morning I found a backhoe digging right in the middle of this field and some tell tale survey stakes, I guess we are getting neighbours.
Its a shame when land is worth more for McMansions then it is for producing food.

About Fast Tracks
Last month I was interviewed by John Cubbin of Ztrains, a content rich Z scale online magazine\website.
The focus was on Fast Tracks as it relates to Z scale and some Fast Tracks history. John is an excellent interviewer and posed several well thought out questions for me to answer via email after a lengthy phone conversation.
I find it interesting that we get such good “press” from online sources such as this site, and others similar to it. What is nice is that the interest is pure, and sincere as we are not major advertisers. The interest is strictly a modeler who would like to share what he is finding. Contrast this with the absolute silence Fast Tracks has received from many mainline print publications. Since we don’t advertise (we feel the web will take care of that nicely for us) there is almost no interest from the magazines, even though Fast Tracks products are very widely used.
That said, there have been a couple good reviews in some of the more modeler type magazines. Scale Rails did a great review of the Modeling with the Masters turnout building clinic we sponsored in Anaheim last summer, Model Railroad News and Narrow Gauge Gazette did product reviews.
Anyway, have a look at the interview, even if you are not into Z scale you might find it interesting, and lets face it, everyone is interested at some level in Z scale…
