PROJECTS on the Go ! # CLUB LAYOUT # 11th July 2021

    Extra sidings to the Port. It looks like it has snowed down there !

    It does look cold !

    The cloud on top of the silos, looks a bit strange. What do You think ?

    A couple of Locos at rest, in front of the tanks. One looks like it has no where to go ?

    Work continues on the turn table, with buildings starting to appear.

    I think the track work is almost complete, except for ballasting.

    Another building just appeared from nowhere !

    It's all hapening !

    David is adding the finishing touches to the Port Sidings.

    Peter has been working on these boom gates for some time now. One day we might see them in       operation, actually going up & down with the lights flashing & bells ringing !

    Another building has appeared at the Turn Table !

    Another new Building ?  I don't know where that came from ???

    It looks good there, I don't know what industry they are into. Maybe it needs a sign on the building, a bit of advertising goes a long way!

GRANT'S ROCKS - Made from crunched up kitchen aluminium tin foil and plaster.

The track was changed from a siding to a passing loop, which left a hole in the scenery. Something had to be done !  So Grant made some rocks to fill the hole. Above we see the basic rocks.

A bit of paint is added, some brown & a wash of black. You can also see some of the damage to the embankment.

 More plaster rock is added, it is really taking shape !

A bit of foliage around the rocks and the cover-up job is nearly complete. Now to ballast the track.....

Well done Grant, a great job !
