Moving along nicely

Lots of work was done in the last 2 weeks. Both frame work and track work were the major items.

      The track work in the Hawkesbury yard is 85% completed. The rest will be done later, but first I'll need to finish the entire staging area, which is barely started.



     The second peninsula is now finish, it will hold the ore mining company on the right side and a paper mill on the other.






     Along the wall is the entrance to the helix which will be a tunnel, on the edge is the two main lines. In the back is the machine shop. The track in the middle is still not done, this track will be rising to reach my brewery plant.




 The valance as been completed for the entire section of the 40' x 15'.




 I've been so anxious to put out my rolling stock, so here are a few pictures for you to enjoy.








     What I would like to do in the next 2 weeks is connect the tracks from the left wall to the rest of the layout. (see the third picture). But first I need to decide if I want to build a gorge with a trestle bridge which is not part of the plan. If so, I'll need to redo part of my framework.

      I will then take a break from frame work and tracks and install my RGB LED under the valance. This should be another week or two, which will take us to September.

Later

PS. Also been working on 2 videos
, now if I could only finish them.................
