Thanks guys, benchwork is more born out of a necessety, otherwise if I clean the room there's to much stuff to be stored. And I do this kinda work the whole day so it's the easy part for me..

nice workshop Marty!! ;-)
Mine looks like there was an explosion there,
I'll tidy up when the weather gets better...
Nice benchwork too.....2nd picture: Bottom right
hgand turnout - main line, not diverging route,
is that a "kink" in the rail just past the frog or just camera illusion?

Thanks Wes, Bill...Bill I believe the 'kink' is more a flash reflection in the picture, can't see one in the WS...

Another day of woodworking on he modules today, almost finished with 3 outa 4. Rough conours of the landscape are already visible..





In the center of the loop I think I can build 3 small houses, they're gonna be reached through a metal bridge over the track, hidding a bit of the tunnel entrance...





Been thinking about the quarry in the other corner, can be I move it to another part of the layout....
Gonna finish these 3 and then the fun can begin...plasterwork and other scenery things !!

Martin,

Very nice ... I have always liked the look of the clean wood before the mess begins..

I am sure you are already imagining the finished scenery ...

Almost Tom, have a certain vision of how it should look, but I let it develop to. There are always improvement that come up during the build.

Martin....I just reviewed the last 4 pages...your plans for the new modules....and your background wood shop. I'm looking forward to seeing these new sections come together. I'm in the process of getting my home ready for sale and that means my GRR will be coming down. But seeing what you're doing gives me a lot of motivation to start planning my next layout....
Looks like it's going to be Maine based.....
Looking forward to your continued progress in the next 100 pages.....tom
