#trackdesign — Public Fediverse posts

Finally sorted out the last area of the layout design, an engine depot with turntable, and carriage sidings - the blue tracks on the image below. Requires the construction of one more reasonably large baseboard almost a meter square in the left side - but obviously not particularly square.

The original steam depot is on the left, the later addition of the diesel depot is split with some storage on the left and then maintenance pits on the right.

Everything in the middle will be filled in with a town around a small castle as previously mentioned, built in several removable sections. See the image alt text for further details.

Edit: updated the screenshot as I’d forgotten to put the purple blocks back in!

I’ve finalised the design of the branch line station on the railway. Single line comes in at the bottom left corner. Platform is long enough for three suburban carriages or a four coach multiple unit. There’s a run-around for steam services. Goods sidings can be shunted without having to go onto the main line. And I’ve managed to make sure that none of the points are across a board joint (the two boards on the right will be fixed together and treated as one). #ModelRailway #OOScale #TrackDesign
