Sectional's Complete



As you can see I've built all the sectional pieces, there are now a total of 8 sections. The original 2 are 8' x 32". The other 6 are 6' x 32". I haven't made the upper level yet on these sections primarily because I haven't quite decided yet on the way I'm going to get the train from one level tothe other. I'm not a fan of helix', too much unseen trackage. I'm leaning towards a sort of Tehachapi loop kind of set up so I won't have this long continuous uphill climb. That would take up to much realestate.





Here are a few more shots of the lead up to the ore dock that I've been working on as well as the kitbashed bridges & some roadway underneath them. I had to start some of them or working on them afterwords would have been a pain.







The last 2 shots are from the other side of the city showing lead up bridge at a different angle. You can also get an idea as to how how these 2 sections join as apposed to how they used to be joined (from an earlier blog post). The last shot I did for Lynn Lunde. I met her & Bob at the national convention in Milwaukee last month. I sent her some pictures of one of their buildings (Schwitters Department store) that I completed. I think it turned out pretty well.
