Roadworks

Among Father Christmas and swedish meetballs there been some small works on the modules. The road that cross the module was this evenings project.


A sheet of 0,75mm styrene was cut in a 4cm slice and scored with a knife in "concrete slabs"




A quick trip to the paintbox and primer and tomorrow it will be glued in place (hopefully)

Test and trials

Puh!

After some work without pictures are Crawford Junction ready for tests and trials in the garage. The first trial was a short work for the switcher to change the loaded hoppers by the elevator to empty ones.


The NW-2 at the junction with the empty hoppers.


Ready, testing the brakes.


Out again. Here in the almost ready landscape on the south section.


Back in the Valley, pushing the cars.


And coupled to the loaded ones.
*¤#*, sorry end of battery in the camera.

Tracklaying finished

I made a fast decision and used a Peco c55 flextrack instead of the missing Atlas to the elevator track.

I also tested the location and height of the depot but nothing is decided yet.

With addition

A small building for the passengers added

Depot building

The Depot at Crawford Valley will be a kitbashed Walther SF Freight shed. I´m going to add some space for the waiting passengers.
