King's Gate Central Update #2

GustavflyerOGR Forum Member

I was working on the bench work tonight & needed to add a shim where the sub roadbed will be added & presto, a trusty angle bracket did the trick. It's funny what you can come up with during a build!

The lower level is almost done, more uprights will be added so the second level of track is approximately 15 inches above the lower level

More pics to follow...

I just took a peek at the December issue and I'm embarrassed. I've been trying to figure out where the 15" separation of levels comes in and now I know. Somehow I missed that this layout will extend down to the floor and the base is just that, a base. I've been waiting for the "table" to be flipped over and the 2nd level added.

After seeing the article, I'm amazed at how much landscaping will need to be done to cover this floor level railroad "island". I've seen layouts with some sections extending to the floor, but that the entire layout. I'll be watching to see how it all turns out. Based on what's been done so far, I have no doubt the result will be exceptional.

Thank you Dave, please stay tuned, more to come for sure! Jim said the scenery was almost overwhelming at times but his results were spectacular. When that time comes for me, I will just inch my way toward the finish line.
