Progress Report

I typically don’t get much time to work on the layout during the week anymore as I’m on baby duty from when I get home from work until I go to bed, so most of my hobby time is on the weekend now. Here’s what’ve I worked on since the last update.

The Dixie River bridge now has track on it. I used Micro Engineering Bridge Flex Track. ME track is pretty darn cool. Flex track can bent to the curve you want and it’ll hold it’s shape on it’s own. Track looks real nice. Temped to do the upper level in ME track, and if I like it redo the lower level. We’ll see. But here’s two shots of the bridge.

The crossing in the background will be a BNSF mainline crossing.

I need to get a wider shot of this, but on the corner just before the bridge I decided to add a tunnel here. This is the west side entrance (On the lower level, West is going to the right)

And lastly I marked out the track location for the GERN plant and will probably glue this down later today or possibly sneak it in during naptime during the week.
