Ballast begins. Think I need to trim up the edges of the pink lady granite for the mainline, but otherwise like the contrast of the cinder base...
Thanks! That was the intention, a well kept mainline (ballasted GN red) and the branchline to the town (ballasted basalt gray). Underbrush and...
Bridge and foundation work continues!
Bridge and scenic work continues!
And got the dry brushing done! Really happy with how the wet scultamold method turned out. I think my colors may be a bit off for Cascades granite...
Got the backdrop installed and rock staining started this weekend. What a difference!

:startled: I am amazed at the detail and spent a good hour browsing the railimages album, fantastic layout! Trying to duplicate a similar setting...
Finally made some progress! All settled into the new flat in Pennsylvania (with a new K4 auto tag!) and had time to start construction. Below you...
Just to add a bit: I've had great experience with Unitrack and even if your plan is slightly off the pieces seem to magically come together....
