I did get to finish up all the ballast yesterday so here are a few pics.
Another thing that I managed to get to was was to cover the underside of the layout with some cloth. I picked up a set of black curtains that were large enough to cover the unsightly under side of Easton. I had to cut some slits into the cloth for the wires that go to the control panels to clear, And a hole for the local cab to pass through. I did realize that my sewing skills are somewhat lacking at this point, but I did get the job done.
Now I can start working on a fascia board to finish up the trim work on the edge of the layout.
