Lost in the Woods Switching Layout

[Sir Robbins]

I will have more updates in May. I have built a few more things, adjusted some details and location of some structures and have my other backdrop ordered. I'll be in Atlanta and then Wisconsin through the end of this month. I'll have some new pics when I get back from being on the road.

Weee... some updates. Remaining track arrived, fencing going in, new locos and detail parts standing by and placement of structures in.

Looks great!

I don't have as much spare time as I would like to spend looking at all the great work here on this forum. This is another thread I just found today.

Great job! You are a skilled modeler, sir!

I am back home now so more work being done this coming week. Getting rest of my roads paved and so on

Backdrop for this section is expected to arrive Tuesday so I'm kinda excited. Been at a stand still until I get it installed. I did lay down my pavement today and lines. Happy how it looks.

This is an absolutely beautiful layout. I love seeing it progress from basically nothing! Really stunning attention to detail, too! I love layouts that tell a story!

This guard rail was a pain to make with the tiny pieces

Looking good.

Will take a few days for the backdrop to settle but here are some rough pics of the first few minutes after install

Toothpicks are for placement of where street lights will be going when they arrive.

Dang. My last post was a whole year ago today. I really have been MIA from this forum and my layout.

There are some changes coming as I am now able to spend some more time on it. Feel bad for neglecting it. Just did a hard scrub of my rails and man was there some grime. Locos were stalling every few inches when I tried to run one. Now they are functional again. I'll try to get some fresh things posted in the coming days.

I'm going to be ripping up a good portion of the first section of the layout to place a train platform for passenger and do a little expanding on the freight side. Brace yourselves... I hate tearing up an essentially finished scene but I'll get over it lol
