John,

Thank you also. This has been the best and most fun of any layout I've done in the past. This plan seems to be coming together nicely.

Thanks Greg, we did have fun Saturday. You were very good and only ran, your loco, at Greg Speed for just a little while.

Karl,


Thank you, much appreciated. I wish I could take credit for a scratch build like this. However, this one was build per Dario's Delwin's Net and Boat Storage kit.

Today I got some grave yard work done.

I positioned the grave yard, removed it and painted a very thin layer of white glue to the plywood. The grave yard fencing was replaced and then I let the glue set.

After the glue set but still tacky, I placed the tomb stones in the yard. I then sprinkled on, thinly, some Woodland Scenics grass.



I painted white glue on the outside of the fencing as shown and added more ground scenery material.



More in a few.

In the photos the tomb stones look very uniform. The camera didn't pick up the dry brush weathering. Tomorrow, I'll add a variation of color to  make them look more natural.



A few flowers have been placed on the more recent burials.



Done for now.
