I had another good weekend.
I got the track attached to the ramp and the coal trestle and weathered the track.

I painted and weathered the back wall pieces and attached them to the layout.

I began adding coal, gravel (ballast), and sand to make piles.

At this point I realized the walls needed some kind of backing. I shaped a couple of 2 inch foam pieces from the old layout for this purpose and attached them. Not only will they provide support for the walls I will be able to add scenery above the walls.
