Further Expansion...

Crawford Valley are going to be a bit larger. A new approach from "Galesburg" has been built which connects in a better way with the gravel pit.

A excavators have done their job ;)

The new end rebuild from an old shelf connection

And beyond with switchmotor.

A look from the bridge

The Bridge, part two

A lot of improvement :) . A background with painted trees, gravel and grass make's the difference.

Turntable

To improve operation possibilities Crawford got one more section. A turntable with the remainings of the long gone locoshed. Att the opposite side there is a siding to the gravel pit.

In some cases people says DCC make's it simpler...

The Bridge

Next to the gravel pit is a small bridge crossing the tracks and a parallell road.

Covered with Sculptamolt

Old Engine Depot...

... at the southeast end of Crawford Valley. A new section that will bring some more space to the layout room and make it possible to turn the old Doodlebug that runs on the branchline.

To the beginning there will be just the turntable and a spur but in the future there might be a shed for the locos. At the opposite side there will be a spur to a gravel pit.
