The plan is to rough in the levels just below and above the track roadbed so that the nearby messy scenery work is more-or-less done before the track is installed. Today I roughed in the level below the track. All those edge pieces are held in place with transfer tape so that I didn't have to wait for glue to dry.
That white paper sheet is the track plan - if a loop can be called a plan :-) The dashed line is the perimeter of the next level up. I need another piece of foam board for that one.
Once the upper level is in place I plan to fill the gaps and do a little sculpting with Celluclay to pull both levels together.
You might be asking, why's it called the Loonar Module? Last post I mentioned this layout was inspired by Falcon Rock, so I got to thinking about birds. The iconic bird of southern Ontario is the Common Loon. This is a module of sorts, so Loonar Module. I'll leave you with the equally iconic Hinterland Who's Who:
Nice start and I am very interested to see it through completion. I recently have had some thoughts of building a small layout for HOn30 locomotive.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Hopefully I can get enough done in the next few weeks that it will be sort of presentable by Christmas.
