March 26th, 2013: Track is Done!!!

Well, the train mountain platforms are laid, the foam is all cut and placed and the track is now all set.  We have to make modifications as we delve into DCC (a whole new adventure) but my job will shortly turn to placing the landscaping in.  I built a couple of model buildings today while father played with wiring.  Tomorrow we head to the shop in Marlboro for gear and advice.  Went to the train show in Kingston on Sunday and while it was small and a little disappointing we stocked up on all the Woodland Scenics stuff we're going to need, including casts for molding hydrocal.

Here's the video:

March 12th: The Build Continues

We have pretty much completed the east and south sides of the terrain and are working into the more complex areas leading up to the mountain on the north side!
