Good Evening All 🙂

I did some more cleaning on the layout..... Starting to look really nice now. I have also cleaned all the track in the station and I received the ballast for the layout, so that is something I can also start with......

Little sections at a time 🙂
Really enjoying fixing and making this layout look good again.

Enjoy the pictures.

Good Morning All.....

Currently the one side of the layout is still held up by a piece of wood support and a G clamp.
I need to make a more permanent and sturdy support.

So I bought 2 pieces of 96x22 Pine planks. The one I cut into a 50mm and a 40mm.
The 96mm and the 50mm was joined together to form the Leg in a T shape.
Then I used the 40mm to create a tri-angle for the layout to rest on. I still have to drill two holes on the side for 2 bolts with wingnuts for a more permanent fix.

Great idea!

Going to bolt it to the N scale layout on the lower level too?

Good Morning All  :biggrin:

Need some help and opinions PLEASE....  O:-)

I decided to fix the 2nd station on the layout.
I stripped off all the buildings as well as all the old bushes and trees, made a real mess  :eek:

Then I took my own station and the buildings as well as the Farm I still have to build and positioned it in the space I have that looks good and looks fairly realistic.
What do you all think?
I like the idea of the Farm with the dam behind it......
Think this will work well?

Picture one is the original.....

Cheers, Evert  :biggrin:

Hi Evert,

If picture one is the original and then you took your own station, to me both stations look
the same. Or am I going blind?  ::)

Okay that explains why the station looked the same.
Also why I did not see the fish pond.  ;)
I am sure that you'll improve this immensely.

Hello, Hello All,

OK, so friend visited and we made a few changes to the positions of the buildings.
I finished the base work, added the Static Grass and some bushes. Next is some trees, but need to go buy some first  :biggrin:

Next is to build the Farmhouse.

Enjoy the pictures.
Cheers, Evert.
