[b] Been busy as the proverbial bee lately since we’ve had a bit of respite from the rain(s).
Might not look like much but there’s about 4 days solid work there.
At least you can get an idea of the track configuration now. There will be a cross over between the two left side tracks to provide a runaround for locomotives terminating their trains here.
These are the two tracks for inbound trains as mentioned above viewed from behind.
And the 3 track yard. Actually two tracks. The one closest the depot will be the team/freight house track. I had to finish the depot (there’s a posting on it in the Model Forum) in order to know where exactly to place the track. Usually I custom crunch the structure to fit the space but this time I wanted a certain size depot so I had to reverse the process. I’ve got a lot of roadbed to go yet on the approaches to the yard area including the approach track to the turntable. Of course there’s rain forcast for tomorrow and the next couple of days. Sigh![/b]
