T trak Modules

Been working on some t trak ideas for some modules a few of my friends and I are building.

Was going to put car into this storage bin but cat had other ideas!

Johnstown Mock-ups

Working on some building ideas for downtown Johnstown

Static Grass

Finally got around to playing with my recently acquired static grass applicator. Seemed to turn out pretty good. Still need work on my ballasting though! Lol

Trying to figure out how to use Some Walthers kits I already have to make the gautier mills in Johnstown. These are pretty iconic so need to figure out how to include them. If this works They won’t be exact, but should have the same feel.

SOCA stickers!

Ordered some logo stickers for the SOCA! Not sure what I’ll do with all of them, but they are pretty cool!!

Testing

This is a test to see if it posts an update to Facebook automatically.

State of the layout

Base foam is painted brown. It’s been way too long doing stuff the train club instead of myself. Next step is to measure for backgrounds and get with my buddy Frank for ordering from Trackside Scenery. Let’s hope it’s done this year and not in 2 or 3!!

Painting Foam

Almost there. 3 more pieces to paint and the foam base will be done. Need to order backdrops after that. I noticed the years on this site and it’s been a long time coming!!!

Wood work

Got the wood down on the first half of the layout. Got some backdrop wood up and putty on. Next will be sanding and painting blue. I will order a background then. Need to get more foam this week as well. Feels like it’s coming along.
