I have finally been able to get somewhere close to finishing this structure for Par station and I am rather pleased with the results. The mesh has fitted in well, albeit seriously tedious to fit, and I have finally painted the model, and added the lamps using wire handrail for the supports and wheel axle bearings for the lamps. I have also made some lamps out of rounded off cocktail sticks and painted them white. ( I have yet to fit these ).
I have also decided to take a big step forward and have moved in the permanent way gang in to convert all the Peco code 55 track to 2FS easitrac. However I'd like to get a good amount of work on the scenics done first, and with a baby on the way due next month, I'm not sure how far I'll get.
I'm also tempted to start a layout thread once the track has been changed over to 2FS so I can document the progress of this long term project and keep it all in one place.
Anyway, here are some progress shots of the structure both off and on the layout.
Best regards,
Jeremy
