As we work our way back west towards Northumberland, it became apparent that it would be easier to paint the walls blue now before putting up all the benchwork. So, you can see the before and after as we look west from Reed.

We are also starting to lay out the benchwork on the floor in the foreground that will go in the alcove to support the three tracks that will be curving around in there. There are the two mainline tracks with a 62 and 66 inch radius, plus the branch on the interior of the curve with a 54 inch radius. Unfortunately, that nice door has to come off to give a better view angle.
