LEGO Store Aventura had these on the wall and also Dark Pink 1x4, which I neglected. No regrets, both missing out on that and getting these three cups.
While Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport is gracing Norwegian's 787-8 , more promising news have come from the airport, hot of the press today. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/broward/fl-southwest-terminal-makeover-20131210,0,5567298.story Southwest and the Airport have joined forces to make (long-overdue) enhancements to Terminal A. The plan is to modernize the terminal as well as provide enhanced security and concessions. Five additional gates will add capacity. This is great especially considering that this capacity is now more possible thanks to the mammoth Runway Expansion project. Meanwhile in Miami, sources are saying LAN is expected to begin flying the 787-8 into Miami starting in late August. The flight will come in when it's dark and take off after 7AM, once a week. Air Europa and Royal Jordanian have, since my last praising post about 2014 at KMIA, announced intentions to fly here as well. 2014 is looking great for South Florida aviation. 20...
It's not uncommon for a quality Trainz route to take years to produce. Without a doubt, my South Florida Mega Route falls under that category. I have actually had the route going for four years, but only got a few key locations on the Florida East Coast (FEC) mainline mapped thus far. With the time considered, it is convenient to follow the new Brightline/All Aboard Florida track charts... and that is what I've done. The documents are available for public viewing as part as the federally governed Environmental Impact Study that was done. While they may change as track construction progresses, they have been pretty accurate thus far. Note: signal will likely be redesigned soon. Also done is the scenery for NE 2nd Ave, which is at the point where the port lead branches off from the mainline. The line to the left goes off towards Jacksonville, and the line to the right wyes down to the Port Lead. The manifest yard job nicknamed the "Downtown Job" als...
Holy cow, has it really been a year and a half since I last touched this blog? Time flies! I am happy to announce my triumphant return to the blogosphere. I feel this that this has always been the perfect forum to communicate my thoughts and the state of the railfanning and model railroading hobby, as I see fit. And lots more is to come as I continue to rebuild my network here and on my YouTube channel. I have done a lot of experimenting on Blogger over the years - separate Trainz and Model Train blogs, LEGO blogs, etc... but it is only appropriate that I return with a keen focus on ONE blog, and rightfully, I will choose the blog that is URLed to my online screen name, brickbuilder711. Personally, I've experienced a few changes since my last blog entry here, December 2014: New camcorder, new railroading interests, and a return to HO scale model railroading. I am back on the Trainz Simulator grind producing a renewed South Florida route and will be sharing lots of progress ...
