I owe the group a few photos and updates (since it’s been over a year).
All track is laid with the exception of several turntable stalls.
About half of the layout now has scenery of some type – mostly grasses – weeds are still pending. A view block with photorealistic backdrops has been installed between the lead from Herculaneum staging and Shapiro’s Scrap Metal. A few buildings are up, but the Festus-Crystal city depot (painting by Wm Bunch) has yet to be built (awaiting arrival of Grandt Line windows). Shapiro’s Scrap is started – a scale house, fence and lots of junk are still pending.
