<FONT color=#b23c38 size=4> <P>Good evening all.</P> <P> </P> <P>I did it, I have the track all laid and except for a couple of spots that will need some attention, it is working great with minimal wiring. This is a DC layout so I now need to decide where to place blocks then begin the full wiring including some of the buildings with lights. </P> <P> </P> <P>Once that is done, I’ll get started on the ballast.</P> <P> </P> <P>Ok, here is an aerial view of what has been done so far.</P> <P>The North East corner, I think the quarry will go in there.</P> <P>[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/luct/100_0637.jpg[/IMG]</P> <P>The north Center of Gloetown</P> <P>[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/luct/100_0638.jpg[/IMG]</P> <P>The NW corner where the sugar refinery is located</P> <P>[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/luct/100_0639.jpg[/IMG]</P> <P>The SW corner where you’ll find Gloetown Junction to NearCity</P> <P>[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/luct/100_0640.jpg[/IMG]</P> <P>The yard in the South center</P> <P>[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/luct/100_0641.jpg[/IMG]</P> <P>The SE corner yet to be developed, maybe a small depot with a minor industry</P> <P>[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/luct/100_0642.jpg[/IMG]</P> <P>The entrance to the yard</P> <P>[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/luct/100_0643.jpg[/IMG]</P> <P>So still a lot of work to do but lots of fun doing it.</P> <P> </P> <P>[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/luct/15.gif[/IMG] back Fergie. Hope you’ll share some of those pics.</P> <P> </P> <P>[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/luct/15.gif[/IMG] Antonio good to have you drop in. You can share everything here you are among friends and we do learn from each other, so you can bring up anything from anywhere and I am sure someone will learn from it.</P> <P> </P> <P>Now a question, I think I read somewhere that a typical 1950is street width in HO is about 2", now I believe that in that period parking was angled and not parallel, if I want to allow for parking on both sides do you think 4" wide would look OK?</P> <P>I’m open for suggestion.</P> <P>Well time to go and look after CFO.</P> <P> </P> <P>Happy MRRing [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/luct/cid_002301c558c55cc234405c07fa45Bob.gif[/IMG]</P></FONT>
