In no particular order of importance, some of the things I've been working on:
--I just received an order of freight trucks from American Models which will help in the completion of a dozen cars. Ten of these will use American Flyer car bodies, two will be scratchbuilt boxcars. I also have a kit-built billboard reefer that I will repaint as a Texas Coast reefer, since billboard reefers were no longer legal in the year, 1947, I'm modeling.
--I have six pairs of passenger trucks available. Five will be used for cars to be used on the layout. One pair will be set aside for a special project: I'm working on a model, strictly for display on a bookshelf, of a 1930s Orient Express coach. I found plans in a book about famous trains and have been building the coach on and off for several years.
--I still have on hand window castings, so I will try to find space to add one more structure...I don't know what it will be, though I'm considering a small office shack for my Coastal Barge Lines pier.
