I've taken a break from the tour ship, to add a few more little details to the modules. November is fast approaching, and that means Trainfest !!!
I have every intention of having these new modules at Trainfest - - it will be my twenty-fourth!
These next two shots - - the first - - "don't pay any attention to the man behind the skyboard"
- - and the second :oops: I asked you not to ........
here you can see the "back board", that makes the module set a 40" X 12' dual gauge loop. the Narrow, and Standard split off across the back, behind the "sky boards". I can alternate a Narrow gauge train in one direction, and next a Standard gauge train in the other, on the dual gauge track that runs along the lower front edge of the set.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
This next shot is the far left end, or the "North end" of the set.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
This shot, is looking from just to the right of the sea wall in the first two pictures. Behind the sailboats and bridges, you can see the standard gauge 2-6-6-2T with tender, on the dual gauge track
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Here, we see a Father and son sitting on the sea-wall ( newly added figures ). The boy is getting a "fishing lesson". To the left, the transom of the Brigantine W.W.Marsland ( rememberin' ya bil ), and a view to the Northwest across Cindys Harbor.
A closer view, you can see the name clearly on the transom. and across the harbor, the caboose of the standard gauge train, and the lobsterman's shack.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
A wider view of the harbor, taken on the south shore of the Lower Kennequogue.
Oh, for those who may be interested in "tree ( shrub & Bush ) count" - - - it's 191, and
"growing" 
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally, the South end of the harbor, and the South shore of the Lower Kennequogue, and the "Boathouse". :oops: It's this picture that makes me want to remove and re-do that Willow tree. :o

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
