Finally a construction update!
I was able to get the cork roadbed and track down on my staging yard extension which I widened by about 4” to allow a strip of industries down the middle. The idea is to have these function as two different areas, Nelson BC on the curved northbound trackage, and Washington state on the straight, southbound trackage. The outer tracks are the through tracks and the inner tracks will give me more industries to serve. I just browsed through a current MR at the local grocery store and someone wrote a short article on doing just this, exposed staging…
I’m planning on using a few structures I have on hand and didn’t like the look of, or foot print of in the Fruitvale yard area. Signage on them will be different on them depending on what side of the layout you’re viewing or operating from.
Thanks for tuning in!
