I haven't done a whole lot this week that is photogenic, but here are some of new items for the layout. Girder Bridge that will be part of river crossing and road crossing on a new area of the layout. Campbell Scale Model Kit. Worked on it off and on for two weeks. It is almost finished, just need to add the guard rails. A lot of cutting and fitting, but mostly waiting for the glue to dry so you can get on to the next part... Some of the interior detail that I am starting for the inside of the Roundhouse. The wooden workbench is scratch built with some tools for detail added. The Orange bench is a (commercial) resin casting. Ray Seneca Lake, Ontario, and Western R.R. (S.L.O.&W.) in HO We'll get there sooner or later! Reply ac4400fan Member sinceMarch 2005 From: Arizona.
