First project having made sure the whole 18 Roads fit (albeit condensed!) was to get the 'extra' 8' 6" where Roads 9 - 9a - 10a - 10 continue the beyond the blocks of 1-8 & 11-18 up to the front of the Great Eastern Hotel. Having taken my sizes from the 1898 OS Map (via the NLS) I printed the templates and got laying.
Here we see the bulk of the Hotel End as of 10.15, with a touch of 9a to extend and the side of the other board to cut - when weather permits. Once finished that'll be this section finished for the time being, then back to Platforms 1-8.
