Well, maybe a bit longer.
I was looking at some photos of the great George Sellious layout the other night and I noticed how he has provided scenery on his staging yard I though why can't I do that we are using the staging yard less and less why not utilise this valuable piece of Real estate for some more useful purpose but still keep it as a small staging yard AND storage as well.
So... Here is a before and after the wall came down, nothing more has been done yet but there will be in the near future so if your interested keep watching every so often for updates.
The engine house will move over to the right with new tracks, the old engine house tracks will be extended right up to the wall and a passenger station will be built with a crossover so the engine can escape there will be a siding to store passenger cars and the rerail track will be painted and hidden by a tall fence (that's the silver track in the centre) the rest will be landscaped with some shop fronts and a small street all this in a 7 feet X 2.6 feet space.
It's exciting, just what I needed, another project to join the rest on the list.
Roo.
