Still pondering how deep to cut mine shaft in to layout?

And then I’m thinking, wasn’t “Head Frames” a song about mining by Foreigner?

#347

Ah, that was “Head Games” by Fer-in-er.

Well, you need it deep enough for the car and operator to disappear, and deep enough that the viewer doesn’t see the car and operator when they are supposed to be at the bottom. I say about 4 feet should probably do it.

Well i have been working on an indoor layout for about 4 years of and on. I have been so busy making things for other people i have not done much work lately. Early on i bought a laser cut engine house scaled up from an o scale model. It did not look very scale to me. But i has set here for years. So i finally decided to build one from scratch. First picture is the old one…

One thing I had to do is make the exhaust stacks a little longer than my original pictures, to make sure I had clearance on the roof. The kit is designed around a 1" plumbing pipe which makes splicing them easy.
