Base boards built & track laying started

It's been a while since the last update, but have been busy working. Tarana was assigned to the council pickup. tried to let it go to a new home, but there was only one person that showed any interest. However they seem reluctant to make contact to pick up, so I couldn't wait any longer.


The build of Thirroul has commenced
I have managed to complete the base boards and commence the track laying on Thirroul.

Each board is 2.0 m x 1.8 m

Start of laying the yard south end


Curves around the roundhouse, 950 outside and 900 inside dia.



I still am yet to decide what will be modelled on the back side, but am leading towards a silo siding as I need somewhere for my fleet of wheatie's to run to and from. It won't be based on anywhere in particular at this stage.
Until the next instalment
Cheers
