Construction to the new layout is well under way, I thought I had enough timber for three modules, not so, will have to buy more next week , Bunning here have a off cuts bin , going to raid it next week see how much I can grab for free . Changing the modules to their new position, I now have to pull up the track laid down and re-nail the track down, at least I will have a perfect level ground to set up the modules , should of though of this idea earlier, the legs are 18 inches high, the ply I bought and had cut up for the new corner module I don't have build now, what I will do is replace one of the modules with a new sheet of ply . First two pics the curved decking, the straight section be a swing bridge , I might have the refuelling and sand dock for the locos in the middle with turn table and work shop. and possible staging vertical yard , will use my gazebo to cover the area. Pic 3v there be another 12 inch wide ply between the house and modules for two more tracks all up 7 tracks plus a siding for auto car carrier ramp., Monday I will mark where the station modules be going ,the fist module will be modified to be a foot wider to take the curve coming off the straight section. Will have my hands full for the next few months, making the most of the nice days where it isn't hot , there is more shade on the side of the house and fence , be able to leave the layout set up longer, depending on the weather and my wife when she does the washing. and needs the clothes line, on a big high indeed . Tony from cold down under keeping on moving ahead .
