Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-21-2010 Not satisfied leaving well enough alone,I added some new projects to my layout as well as re-doing a few areas. First up is a pedestrian bridge making it easier for people on one side of the park to get to the diner At the industrial parks office I added an observation platform The oil dealer got a minor do over.I took down the vertical tanks and laid them horizontally.Added new piping and a service platform. At the coal yard,I removed the fences and re-set them to make the yard a little more compact and to make it so the coal cars are inside the yard. Lastly,the steel drum manufacturer.I took this whole area apart.Turned the building around and relocated the fences,finished goods and raw material storage. Hope you all enjoy the changes that I have made. Bob Re: Latest and last projects - ocalicreek - 10-21-2010 Looks nice! Have you got any 'before' photos so we can see the changes? Galen Re: Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-21-2010 There are photos that I posted in past posts. Re: Latest and last projects - scubadude - 10-21-2010 I like the pedestrian bridge, any more close-up shots of it?? Re: Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-21-2010 I'll see what I can do Re: Latest and last projects - nachoman - 10-21-2010 I really dig your layout. Did you ever come up with a good operating scheme? Re: Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-21-2010 Thanks Kevin.As far as operations go,I'm going to try a system that I found at the Dallas Model Works web site.I looks like it may work for a small layout like mine. Here are two close ups of the pedestrian bridge that Scubadude wanted. Re: Latest and last projects - Bob C - 10-23-2010 Love the ped-bridge ! Is it scratch ? My acrophobia kicked in just viewing the pics ! Bob C. Re: Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-24-2010 Bob-the ped-bridge is scratch built except for one set of stairs which are a laser kit.The other set I had to make(should have gotten two stair kits). Bob Re: Latest and last projects - scubadude - 10-24-2010 Thanks for the extra pictures Bob, that bridge is bad to the bone! Re: Latest and last projects - e-paw - 10-24-2010 nice... I like that walkway.. Re: Latest and last projects - foulrift - 10-24-2010 Thanks.I had fun building it.Apart from a few mistakes involving placement between the rails,it went together rather quickly. |
