Building the Andersley Western Railroad

No vandalism on my railroad, Ken. We have sentries

Will be weathered though

 

Somebody needs a bath...

 

Ha ha. Better be careful. If that dirt was cleared away, there might not be anything left underneath.

 

We had visitors from down under this week and delighted Gary (Gats) could help with the new staging yard for the AW.

I'm keen to see the finished product

 

High time I posted an update! Vegetation applied to new staging yard.





The far left track is the switching lead, next is the RIP track. Then the four staging yard tracks

 

Added a narrow fascia board along front of layout
Fitted a walkway and pipes between the Vanco buildings


Now the staging has scenery, this gives a more open view

Outstanding modeling.

 

Great composition and angle for the F7, and the shot of 643 looks like the real thing!

 

loving all the details, can you post photos of the new staging area?

 

I could do a 'drone' style flyby of the layout, maybe?
