I added some patches and cracks to the "concrete" yard. I also used an Xacto knife to cut expansion joints in the concrete. You can't see them too well in these shots.

Next I used a Raw Umber wash to weather the concrete. You can see the expansion joints better in these photos

Using the leftover wall sections from the ramp I created the wall behind the coal trestle.

Next I will paint and weather the wall sections and attach them to the layout. While the walls are drying I will attach the coal trestle and the track to the trestle. I need to figure out something to help create the piles under the trestle. I plan on having coal, gravel, and sand.
