No.16 Cornered

As originally envisaged the top right corner was just an empty space:



However whilst playing trains it soon became apparent that a passing loop would be useful for the branch line - and if this could be combined with some sort of 'halt' / station for the autotrain, then it would be doubly useful.  The wood work was changed and some track layed:



However - why did I cut off the piece of board into the corner?  Maybe the corner of the room was not square? It certainly wouldn't be!  Now two years later the piece of board has been found, reattached and a goods siding laid.  At last I have space for Bachmann's Scenecraft Goods Shed.  As with so many of the resin models, I find them deceptively big.


Now that the track has been modified 'let ballasting commence' and then perhaps a backscene.  In the longer term I will have to devise a cut and cover tunnel (removable) to hide some of the tracks for the reversing loops and hidden sidings in the foreground.
