Thought I would start a new one as we are already a couple of days into the new week.

I finally got around to starting on my SP&S stockyard spur switching layout. I have laid out the cork, got the backdrop started, and started to plan out where some of the buildings will go. I still have some smoothing out to do on the backdrop, and then I can start painting clouds, trees and other scenic elements. I have fixed up the turnouts for the layout using PC board ties and details from Proto87 stores, once the backdrop is more complete I will start putting the track in place permanently.
