Booty Call - Christmas 2018

Hmmmm.... maybe not the kind of booty you were thinking. But if you move your mind from that to talking like a pirate, then you'll get my drift.

Yes, it's my annual review of what Santa brought me for Christmas: Railroad-wise . . .
Taking it from the top

• Foam Rabbet Cutter - for joining foamcore walls together to make structures/mockups
• Fine (green handled) glue applicators - for precision glue placement
• Headset (earphones and mic) - for better podcast participation and to help the agent/operator do his duties with less distraction
• Walthers' Merchant's Row I - to get a start on structures for Middletown
• "New Haven Trackside with TJ Donahue" - a must-have New Haven RR book, with all color photos (can't believe I didn't have it already)
• "A History of the Boston & Maine Railroad" - because, since I've read "Vanishing Markers" and am currently reading "High Green and the Bark Peelers" (not to mention being heavily influenced by Jim Dufour's layout), I needed to scratch the B&M itch a bit lately...
• Paint shaker - cuz I'm working a lot with craft paints lately and sometimes the ol' Badger motorized paint stirrer isn't enough
• Walthers' Beverage Crates & Bottles - cuz my buddy Dave is making progress on Gra-Rock, so I have to have some details for that scene ready to go
• Cape Cod travel booklet issued by the New Haven RR from 1930 - because, despite the siren call of the B&M, my two greatest loves are Cape Cod & the New Haven RR. And, of course, all a distant second to The Missus
• Little pointy cotton swabs - because sometimes Q-tips are WAY too large and fuzzy
• More lumber piles for the Wethersfield Lumber scene
• Flush-cut sprue nippers - cuz the my current ones are wearing out
• "Detailing and Upgrading Steam Locomotives" - since I have a steam fleet to, um, detail and upgrade...

So what did YOU get for Christmas?
