I got some pavement done today on Metropolitan Ave and the Manhattan Beer lot. I didn't do the other tracks yet because I don't know how I will do it yet since there will be 2 sets of switch points that will be in pavement. I'll probably try styrene.

I test fitted a fence with an operational gate for manhattan beer also.

I love it! A very clean and clear ISL.

Looks like Walthers offers the same kind of fence in N scale too http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/462-92405

Made some progress on a few buildings and restarted the original odd shaped building, not a big update but I think they're starting to come together.

Nice progress! Looking forward to more!

Those buildings look great, and such fast progress! The fencing is a great find, I might have to grab some for my N scale layout too Cheers

Cheers,

Kev

There's been a recent spree of crime in my neighborhood, car break-ins, muggings for iPhones, and a shooting. My girlfriend and I have been discussing not renewing our lease and finding a new apartment which means this layout will get dismantled. I might be getting ahead of myself but i'm not sure i'll rebuild it but i'll keep everyone posted.


Re: NY&A Maspeth Queens - Rscott417 - 01-14-2014

After a few weeks of talking it seems as though my girlfriend really has no interest in staying in this apartment so this weekend the layout was dismantled. It was tough to do since it was coming along pretty nicely for the space I had to work with. But who knows the next place might have a spare room instead of a 6 foot wide alcove and I can put together a nice sized NYA layout. Once I can start planning i'll start a new thread. Thanks for following and for everyones input. Cheers
