Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-21-2010 Not satisfied leaving well enough alone,I added some new projects to my layout as well as re-doing a few areas. First up is a pedestrian bridge making it easier for people on one side of the park to get to the diner ![]() At the industrial parks office I added an observation platform ![]() The oil dealer got a minor do over.I took down the vertical tanks and laid them horizontally.Added new piping and a service platform. ![]() At the coal yard,I removed the fences and re-set them to make the yard a little more compact and to make it so the coal cars are inside the yard. ![]() Lastly,the steel drum manufacturer.I took this whole area apart.Turned the building around and relocated the fences,finished goods and raw material storage. ![]() Hope you all enjoy the changes that I have made. Bob Re: Latest and last projects - ocalicreek - 10-21-2010 Looks nice! Have you got any 'before' photos so we can see the changes? Galen Re: Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-21-2010 There are photos that I posted in past posts. Re: Latest and last projects - scubadude - 10-21-2010 I like the pedestrian bridge, any more close-up shots of it?? Re: Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-21-2010 I'll see what I can do Re: Latest and last projects - nachoman - 10-21-2010 I really dig your layout. Did you ever come up with a good operating scheme? Re: Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-21-2010 Thanks Kevin.As far as operations go,I'm going to try a system that I found at the Dallas Model Works web site.I looks like it may work for a small layout like mine. Here are two close ups of the pedestrian bridge that Scubadude wanted. ![]()
Re: Latest and last projects - Bob C - 10-23-2010 Love the ped-bridge ! Is it scratch ? My acrophobia kicked in just viewing the pics ! Bob C.
Re: Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-24-2010 Bob-the ped-bridge is scratch built except for one set of stairs which are a laser kit.The other set I had to make(should have gotten two stair kits). Bob Re: Latest and last projects - scubadude - 10-24-2010 Thanks for the extra pictures Bob, that bridge is bad to the bone! Re: Latest and last projects - e-paw - 10-24-2010 Re: Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-24-2010 Thanks.I had fun building it.Apart from a few mistakes involving placement between the rails,it went together rather quickly. |
