We're getting there

To quote British Rail (sometime in the mid eighties I think) "We're getting there". A few hours up in the loft over the last week has seen:

• The finishing off of the roof boarding on the 'station' side of the loft (yet to be painted white)
• Installation of additional light
• Moving of the loft ladder to make it easier to access from the landing
• The building of the station baseboard

We've bought a box of 25 yards of Peco flexible track, which by my calculations should be enough to get us round the loft and furnish the station area. I remembered the fishplates, but forgot the track pins! We've laid out some track on the new baseboard and at least now we're getting some idea of what the finished product will look like.

And there's news on the engine shed as well. As you can see from the photos, it is now finished. Thanks to my wife / Esther's Mommy! I reckon it's excellent for her first ever bit of kit building!
