Progress!

      Hello, exciting things have been happening on my end. I have the near final track plan drawn up and construction has started. 
The New Layout Plan
(Color Coming Soon)
The layout has increased from twenty square feet to thirty square feet and Alexandria is now five feet long. This was changed from the original 2' x 10' layout because of difficulties in the Alexandria yard. A backdrop runs down the center of the layout and this version also includes an office. The 3' x 2' area closest to the front that says optional is, well, optional. Instead of that section representing the Rappahannock River, I might have a staging cassette to represent trains coming from the front and for storage of rolling stock. Another improvement over the other plan is, this version will be controlled by an NCE Power Cab.


      I will be posting pictures and updates as work ensues. Happy Railroading.
