Thanks @x600  Greg.  Just don't look too closely at the joints - it's all cut with a circular saw, so none of the joints are perfect, just good-enough.
Pretty sure there isn't a square corner in the thing.

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

None of that matters once its covered in foam and slathered with track and stuff.
Which spot has the DL&W interchange again? I Forget. :D

It's 400 scale miles (2.5 actual miles) ENE, where I'm modeling Buffalo....
I do have a Lackawanna 10-6 and some baggage cars for train 5.

Started on backdrop this weekend.   Have 40% of the hardboard up (first two pieces).   This will be the East Wayne yard.



Three more pieces of hardboard to go!

80% there - these two panels add the east end (New Haven, IN) of the backdrop.  One more panel to put up (Ft. Wayne proper), then it's time for mudding.

Last piece of backdrop board just went up.  This will be behind Ft. Wayne.



Now it's time for tape and mud!
