Chrisjh Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 A very good friend of mine, Martin is kindly helping me to build an extension to my existing layout. On the upper layout we have built a large terminus on one of the curves. Its an oval shaped layout. As the up and down lines enter the station they fan out to give four running lines through the station and two lines which go outside platforms 1 and 4. We are currently building a curved canopy roof similar to York station which spans the two platforms and the four running lines, I have attached photographs of the canopy to show the work in progress. Many thanks and best wishes,Chris 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
