Rippers
Western Thunderer
A month of various turkey and alcohol related diversions on we have still made some progress........
As part of the upgrade the canal/river side has been remodelled to from brick to wood piles so as to reflect information shown in photos of the site that have come to light since the original build.
Not the different pattern on the curved end of the site (as per the pictures). A created from individual wood sections. Those of you studying the changes might also note that the brick retaining wall at the other side of the waterway has also been upgraded with some interesting textured 'weathered' brick paper.
Though much of the scenic work is still on hold at present as easy access has been needed to the underside...........
......as the electricians are in wrangling all of the under-board gubbins into place as it has been decided to convert the layout to DCC as part of the upgrade as a test bed for the layouts future replacement (Wisbech East).
