Okay folks, it isn't much in the scenery department yet, but i figured I'd post some pics of what I have done lately. I have really spent alot of time lately, mostly finishing the track and magnets and switch throw mechanisms. Then I put the fascia on, and I ended up adding on a bit to the square footage of the layout! It seems that the fascia was just crying for more space so I could make it curve nicely instead of coming together at angles at the corners.
All the wiring underneath is complete-nice and neat-both for the track and the electromagnets and controls. I have started carving the foam for ditches and roads and a creek. I've thrown some "ground goop" on the carved areas, but I am not totally happy with the "dirt" color. Maybe the ground foam and bushes and trees will improve that.
So anyway, nothing spectacular, just progress pics:
