Скачать или смотреть Layout Update - April 2021: Atlas CN Dash 8-40CW, CP Banff Station Printed Walls...

Atlas Masterline CN Dash 8-40CW 2455, hobbyshop second hand find. Have been looking for one of these for years. Replaced couplers with Kadee 158, fixed ditchlights and shortened handbrake chain. Now time to put some miles on it!

Rapido Trains Inc. baggage express car hobbyshop second hand find. Older run (2008) in wrong box is a great addition to my 1980's VIA rail Canadian.

Mount Norquay road crossing gate install continues. Holes drilled in the layout, 2/3 signals installed. Logic tech circuit boards installed underneath. Ordered a Circuitron crossing gate/semaphore kit to mechanically actuate the gates.

Tree building ongoing, 437 trees built to date.

Resumed work on the Banff Station building, creating printed wall detail for the first floor vertical walls. A lot of work using Corel Draw X7 to scale and combine my own photographs of the building. Currently on revision 2 with pretty good results so far. Pro tip to use a rotary cutting wheel and large quilting ruler to make very accurate straight cuts which is imperative when modelling buildings using this technique.
