Plaster and base scenery around the Power Plant/farm area;
The foam has been put in place for the river scene in the second room so that track laying can begin. The available space for the layout in the second room is 33' by 17'.
We had a great Open House today. Visitors were nonstop from the time we opened the doors until closing. At one point we couldn't get between rooms because we had so many visitors. It was a great success. I took some pictures of the layout prior to the Open House beginning to show the progress we've made.
Managed to get some work done on the main club layout yesterday. From the open house back in December until yesterday we were getting the portable layout ready for the Minot Toy show. Starting about Feb 1st others have been working on the main layout so I thought I would post an update.
Track work for a larger passenger station has begun in the second room. There will be 4 tracks and an engine facility to house the 2 complete Amtrak trains, a Great Northern Empire Builder and a complete Daylight. The passenger station is on the upper level in the picture.
Track work across the river is now complete and scenery foam is starting to be added to the area.
The second peninsula is beginning to have scenery added. So far a Cloverdale plant and parking lot have been started.
