There have been some huge changes for the SBT. The layout as you've seen it is no more. Our landlord asked that it be dismantled. We have however secured a new location closer to home and will begin construction as soon as we can. This will also bring a few changes to the concept of what will continue to be, the Salmon Bay Terminal Railway.
The reality of the location is going to be changed drastically. The feel of the real Salmon Bay will be retained but the emphasis will change. Timber will once again be king and the coastal forest of Northwest Washington the setting. Mainline interchange traffic will no longer be the bread and butter and the railroad will be self contained, the mainline railroad running parallel at the end of track. The time period will still be variable depending on the mood of the operators but the transition period will be the default time setting.
So I will continue to keep you updated and keep your ears perked for the sound of whistles echoing in the deep forests and the sound of heavy logging locomotives as they go about their business.
