Getting to grips with the key scenery...
Board 5 owner Ted has chosen to model our industrial scene at one end of the layout with some good quality detailed resin structures from Skytrex.
The main warehouse/factory building for the rear of the board will probably have at least one of the sidings going inside for loading/unloading.
On the front there will be a half relief building and as can be seen on the end board, we intend to build a structure over the twin tracks to join the two buildings, these typically carried pipes and electrical cables.
At the other end on board 1, Richard is busy doing a fist fit on the platform edging for our main station. The base building can be seen in the foreground - this is a laser cut model and will form, together with 3 platforms our through station.
Here, the sweep of the mainlines in and out of the station can be seen clearly heading up through the other boards. Our test track in the background has its usual busy operators.
Kevin 3 is also helping on board 1 with our work to complete the platforms. Now the edging walls have been test fitted, Kevin is starting the work on the cross supports.
On board 4 Kevin 2 is statrting to add our grass sheeting on the embankment section, we will add the usual coloured scatter, bushes, trees etc to bring it to life.
