John,
I love the matching pair.  They are going to look great together.

Thanks for stopping by and the kind words.  I have lots of exterior and interior detail plans for this one. I will also be detailing the Roundhouse at the same time. I can't wait to see how it turns out.

Looking great John.  You're really making some nice progress on this build.  I'm loving the background scenery.....the mountains, trees...beautiful.

Hi Mark


Thanks for stopping by the thread and the kind words.  This build will be on the workbench for a long time - lots of details planned.  I will be getting back to the Mackenzie Build this week, too.

Here are a couple pictures of the area around the Locomotive Works without the ugly knob.

I finished the base board and cut the holes for the inspections pits.

There is lots of space beside the Locomotive Works and behind the Roundhouse now for the scrap yard.

I added an extension to the facia board that is the view block between my work area and the layout. I left the bar clamps on overnight and it's safety first on the S&S RR. I put a paper towel over the bar clamp so I wouldn't run into it in the morning.

That is just amazing. The new structure is great but the glimpses of the scope of the layout are fantastic! You've got a billion pictures on here but generally focused on the latest structure, trestle, etc...I'd love to see some sweeping panoramic shots. The background scenery, trees, and rocks are incredible. The degree of craftsmanship in your structures is highest level too but wow, the grandeur of your scenery is pretty unique.
