Post 2 of regular weekly update:I have had a prebuilt (factory assembled) switch tower in place for some time; I also was building a kit.The untouched prebuilt in position in Arock (not planted - just in position):[IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n123/Alan_B/012507-001_r.jpg[/IMG]The painted and heavily weathered tower, ready to be "planted":[IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n123/Alan_B/012507-027_r.jpg[/IMG]The assembled, painted and weathered kit in place in Hardspot (ready to be "planted"):[IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n123/Alan_B/012507-007_r.jpg[/IMG]These guys (MOW crew) have been together for over 17 years waiting on company in the way of other figures on the layout.  Today, I started some more "rough" detailing.[IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n123/Alan_B/012707-007_r.jpg[/IMG]Hardspot passenger station with some "people" activity (the white stuff around the base of some figures is the still wet glue):[IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n123/Alan_B/012707-004_r.jpg[/IMG]I assembled one Buckboard and have started another.  Here is the first, near the tracks in the Hardspot yard:[IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n123/Alan_B/012707-010_r.jpg[/IMG]Here is a more distant shot of old town in Hardspot:[IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n123/Alan_B/012707-003_r.jpg[/IMG]Most of the buildings in Arock and Hardspot are just sitting on top of the ground.  I will start the process of "planting" them shortly.  By doing things this way, I don't end up with buildings "just a little bit out of place;  I get to run the layout and move them sightly so that they end up where I really want them.Next week - more mountain work and more detail work.Thanks for looking.
