Last additions - Mine Layout: |
Mine Office's/Lower Mine286 viewsThis area is now also at the correct levels, although the tunnel on the main headshunt (far left) is yet to be cut out. Also the area around the hidden return line here will have to be built up as the mainline runs directly above it.Jun 22, 2009

Hidden Return line285 viewsA channel has been carved through the lower foam block and up into the middle foam block. This is where the hidden return line to take gondolas between the mine and powerstation will run.Jun 22, 2009

Turntable area287 viewsPlanned height of the turntable cut into the middle foam blockJun 22, 2009

Lower River269 viewsAlong with the track beds, I have started to carve out the river gorge. The front facia will be integrated into the layout, and the waterfall will flow over the edge of the layout.Jun 22, 2009

Power Station288 viewsThe power station will be situated here. The foam has been cut to the depth of the hidden return line, and will have to be built up to the right level once the track is layed.Jun 22, 2009

Miners Camp320 viewsThe initial carving has taken place, though there are some adjustments still needed in this area.Jun 22, 2009

The Plan428 viewsBasically the layout itself is 1900mm long and at one end 270mm wide, at the other 600mm wide. On top of this there is a control panel and 4 track traverser which will measure 475mm long and 270mm wide - the control panel can be positioned in one of 2 places, on the end (above where my computer is on my desk) when at home, or coming out of the back when the layout is at an exhibition (to save people at the exhibition space). The design is on three levels, rising up by 100mm over the zig-zaging mainline.Jun 22, 2009
