Freelance 2019-1

[faraway]

Freelance 2019-1 Day zero. The moment when everything is pure imagination.

I will use Sunday to make a temporary connection with Atlas tracks to run trains through the staging yard around the room while waiting for Peco tracks to arrive.
A layout must be operational all times (even as a simple circle) 

May be you remember the layout base was installed in early 2018 with a simple swap of scenery of this part in mind. The four track  staging yard at the north side and the connectors with hatches at the west and east side are not affected at all. The two tracks feeding the scenic part are well visible. Furthermore had the trolley layout no ballast and green glued to the base. The mess was absolute minimised. 



ps. I saved all urban buildings from the trolley layout in the basement. Many of them got side walls and a roofs made of cheep foam board. That was easy to remove and the remaining front walls do not use much space. It all fits in two shopping baskets.

pps. 9 pm Could not wait to see a train running. The temporary track is installed, the loop is closed and the very first train is running .....
