Into 2014

Like most people I try to make New Year resolutions and this year it is no difference. So here goes with the relevant ones for my model.

I must get on with the 3D kit. I am looking at constructing the interiors and a method of attaching the floors to the body. I already have a power bogie but need to get wheel sets for all the other bogies. Then I have to decide a colour scheme ranging from all over green too all over blue.

The planning for the layout is still on-going but the recent photos have really added at lot of details. So I can now begin to work on the fuel depot and possibly the scotch derrick as well.

I am hoping to build the layout in the garage but in the spring I will have to seal the walls and floor. Then its into baseboard building and track laying. I am going to use C&L components and will need to make five points. luckily for me C&L are just down the road! They also supply Peco so that will cover the fiddle yard as well. 

Well that is the basis of my list for this year. No doubt it will all change especially as our first Granddaughter is due at Easter but one can hope.........
