July 2017 York Progress Report

07/14/201703/18/2022 Ed Kapuscinski

I’m still intimidated by York itself (and its multiple square feet of structures and hardscape), but I’ve made progress nonetheless.

May 2017 Progress on the actual Windsor St crossing

06/05/201703/18/2022 Ed Kapuscinski

So, with a layout centered on “Windsor St Yard”, it only makes sense that I include the actual Windsor St crossing. Windsor St is the small road that crosses the tracks just south of the yard. I wanted to make sure to do the crossing justice, but also had to fight with the actual layout […]

Shapeways Gives Me The Volvo That Got Away

10/11/201603/18/2022 Ed Kapuscinski
