Determined not to cut any new sheet, I could only generate one full length side piece, so a bodge with a short infill piece and a brace. As is standard, the height of these is 3″ to match the layout.
In place with bolt holes drilled and some track dumped on it. The clearance is tight at the back, as it is with the exhibition FY, just need a bit more code 100 to finish it off. The next stage maybe to face it with some hardboard front and back with a small lip to keep things off the floor.
The rear two roads will cope with a two car DMU, the front of the three will hold a loco and two coaches… just. There will also be a plain road at the very front for the second ‘off’. This is quite the departure as aside from building other people’s layouts, I’ve not had one of my own in a running state for quite a while. Dury’s Gap has a short temporary fiddle stick, but never ran at home with the exhibition yard. This a new world.
